We arrived here Monday, we'll be leaving Tomorrow morning. We'll be heading for Sante Fe.
We visited White Sands National Monument. (White Sands Missile Testing Area, 1st A-Bomb, etc). We also went to the N.M Air and Space Museum. The walls were full of people that took part in our space program. One person that stood out, I am ashamed to say I can't remember his name. This guy jumped out of a balloon (special kind) at 102000 ft. He was a test pilot. But he was testing the affects of jumping from extreme altitude and the chute. He did 3 tours in Nam, flew 483 combat missions and was shot down and spent 11 months as a POW. Folks thats a HERO...... While at White Sands we climbed a sand dune only to find that Jack Black was filming a movie - Year One". Watch for it when it comes out. We also viewed a IMAX film about Dolphins. We enjoyed that also. Check out the views from our latest camp site. Test care
Love Tom and Karen
