It's a new dawn and a new day and we are feeling the shift. As for our agenda, we are going to drive south of here a couple of hours down to the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge. I'll take some photos but this is what I hope to see.. Sandhill Cranes. It's a celebration of sorts and we are staying at the Blackstone Hotsprings in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico.
The story goes that back in the Day, Ralph Edwards offered to broadcast his show from any town that would change its name to Truth or Consequences. This town, formerly known as Hot Springs, NM went for it and there you are. People in this state call it T or C. It has the best mineral water I have ever experienced and the rooms at this place all have tubs that you can fill with the natural stuff..
I am going to refrain from computer use and just take my book along and do some reading and be quiet. So no more blogging until Friday afternoon or maybe Saturday.
I was watching the confirmation hearings for awhile but can't stand to watch any more posturing. Period. Good questions are one thing. Soap box posturing is another.
So off we go to commune with the cranes. And snow geese. And who knows?
