    Splash-4 Visits New Mexico

    Hello Rabble!

    Been away for a little while as I have traveled from Snellville, Georgia to Albuquerque NM. Had a great time flying in the xmarks kilt and walking around town on Friday while wearing the thing. Early Saturday morning we headed to the southern part of the state to go camping overnight. I thought I would share some of the scenery for you folks...

    Part of the Antelope herd.


    The view from where we were camping.


    But, it's a dry heat!


    The nighttime sky


    Sunset


    The VLA... A very large radio telescope.


    More coming as the week progresses.
