Portales

Wynette: If you live in New Mexico you have probably heard of Portales, a town on the east side of the state. It’s where my mom grew up. My dad grew up very near there, in Dora. My brother Greg was born there. My mom and brother Russ went to college there. Tonight and tomorrow Charlie and I are in nice city of Logroño. We are staying in Hotel Portales, which is on Portales Street.

It is the main street through the old town here.  I believe it means portals.

  1. Portales means “porches”. — Anne

    P.S. We’ve been out of town, so I’m catching up.
