Tomorrow we start on the trek home. New Mexico is a nice place that we hope to see more of someday. On Wednesday we went to Roswell. Not sure what I expected but Roswell is a lot bigger than I thought it would be. Roswell came to my attention quite a few years ago. Some of you might remember back in the late 40's on a ranch 75 miles outside Roswell something crashed in the desert. The descriptions given by the rancher at the time are very strange. Just before midnight July 4 1947 he heard a loud noise, different from thunder.The next day he discovers a debris field 300 yards wide and 3/4 of a mile long. The story has developed from there with the military declaring it was nothing more than a weather balloon. I remember my mother telling me she believed there certainly could be aliens visiting us. The universe is so large that almost anything could be out there and probably is. Whether or not they want to visit us is the question.
Happy belated St. Patty's day. We had a traditional corned beef and cabbage dinner here at The Ranch and today the folks here sang Happy Trails To You and wished us a safe journey. The Ranch is one of the friendliest Escapee parks we have visited. It does give new meaning to the phrase "middle of nowhere". It's a nice middle of nowhere. It's the people that make the difference.The plan is to spend a day or two in Abilene then on to Hot Springs National Park in Arkansas.
Be well. Talk to later.
Pat and Carolyn
