Roswell, New Mexico. That name had always brought to my mind the image of a small town crazed with UFO fever. I was curious to see that spectacle. The reality turned out to be considerably different.

Cosmos
It was a happy surprise that the route to my next stop, Socorro New Mexico, would take me past the Very Large Array, a radio telescope with an antenna array that spans miles. Of course, as an electrical engineer and an astronomy buff, this was a must see. It was quite impressive viewed from the highway, but when I got to the visitors’ center, it turned out to be possibly the best technical tour I’ve ever taken.

Some Things Never Change
In this post I’m back on the road again, headed across the Southwest. I visit a friend I hadn’t seen in nearly 30 years, meet her husband, and together we visit the Petrified Forest in northeastern Arizona.
