Nuacht Aoir has learned – exclusively – that the Leprechaun International Convention is taking place today, Saint Patrick's Day, in New Mexico. This is the second year that the leprechauns have convened in the region. Last year, it was in Silver City. This year, the convention is taking place in Catron County.
"We enjoyed ourselves last year in Grant County," stated Donnchadha the Leprechaun. "But we found some intriguing signs that the area north of Silver City might be even more exciting."
(Leprechauns only have one name; a few prominent leprechauns are allowed to add "the Leprechaun" to their name. Donnchadha is one of the more prominent Irish leprechauns.)

The publication of Part One of UFOs Seen In Grant County by The Chronicles Of Grant County took place prior to the recent spat of UFOs being acknowledged by the United States military. The publication occurred before the U S military started – publicly – shooting down UFOs in the skies over American and Canadian territory from Alaska to South Carolina.
The Peoples Republic of China indicated that the "UFO" shot down over waters near South Carolina was a Chinese "weather balloon" that traveled accidently off its planned trek. The U S dismissed that explanation; instead, the Federal government indicated that the "UFO" was actually a balloon equipped with sophisticated technology designed to spy on American military installations and communications systems.

Moving Patterns
U-Haul reported statistics on moving patterns to and from the Silver City Area as well as to and from New Mexico. (The photograph was provided courtesy of U-Haul, 2022.)
According to statistics issued by U-Haul in early January of 2023, slightly more people moved into the Silver City Area as compared to the number of people who moved away from the Silver City Area during 2022.
The company reported that U-Haul customer traffic in the Silver City Area included 52.4% arrivals and 47.6% departures in 2022.
Arrivals to the community, the company indicated, increased 7% from 2021 to 2022; departures from the community increased 4% from 2021 to 2022.
To put these numbers into perspective, consider the moving patterns throughout the State of New Mexico. New Mexico ranked as the number 19th growth state in the United States during 2022, according to a news release from U-Haul.
