I finished up my work in Alamogordo yesterday, but we got a late start this morning because last night my coworker and I stopped in at <a href="http://www.vfwpost7686.org/">VFW Post 7686</a>, and it turned out to be karaoke night. This was my first experience with karaoke. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Working in the Las Cruces, New Mexico, area for the last two weeks, I got one significant side benefit: a personal tour of the Trinity test site &#8211; the location of the world&#8217;s first nuclear explosion, and the McDonald Ranch House, where the bomb was assembled. Here&#8217;s a picture of me standing in the crater [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My interest in history, always strong, has become even stronger over the last four months. It seems to have been kicked off by seeing Picacho Peak rising out of the Arizona desert as I was driving down the I-10 interstate back in November. At the time, I was struck by the peak because of its [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On this occasion I had some time over the weekend to spare, and I wanted a change in the scenery and to indulge in a little sightseeing. So I cut across Kansas on the I-70 (not much of an improvement over Texas), and started heading southwest in Colorado. I spent the night in Colorado Springs, and the next morning, started heading south on the I-25. The Rocky Mountains were off to my right, and I was driving through the foothills until I hit the Raton Pass and entered New Mexico. I was now following the Mountain branch of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Fe_Trail">Santa Fe Trail</a>. Actually, the Santa Fe Trail started in Missouri, but the I-70 runs a little north of the original trail, although the terrain is similar.]]></description>
