Once again I'm going on a little road trip , it's an Anniversary thing (21 years of Marriage), this is the first time since 9/11 we have gone anywhere for our Anniversary . So a little time seeing the Country ( More like parts of Michigan we have never been to before ) Is in High order (So says the Wife ).

Have a good one !

Time off ?

No I'm not leaving again (Yet)
While Kyros is MIA I have been doing my best to keep up .
Even while suffering from a Serious case of flu/bronchitis/pneumonia/ or something I should have been hospitalized for AGAIN !
And my better half came to town , nursed me back to health , all while seeing some of the most awesome sites of the country !



Pictures Just don't do things justice sometimes !



44 miles of winding road to get to the Middle of the Gila national Forrest , no noise , only a couple of people ( Rangers ) and NO CELL PHONES ! absolutely beautiful .





All to see this , The Gila national Cliff Dwellings in New Mexico !




These dwellings were constructed by Mogollon Indians ( Not Mongolian ) Some 700 years ago !

More Road Trip !

To further verify my geekiness , A trip to the VLA , The National Radio Astronomy Observatory ,VERY LARGE ARRAY .



27 , 25 meter radio dishes Aligned in a "y" configuration , Gives this array the resolution Rivaled only by the Hubble .



While I was here they were monitoring the Cassini Spacecraft orbiting Around Saturn , And was lucky enough to watch the Data coming into the Control room , on 5 different monitors , Very awesome .

The Geek Trip !

560 miles , about 13 hours altogether ( Yes , I may have broken the speed limit once or twice ) Make up one hell of a Road trip !
The Trinity site , which is only open twice a year , is one of the most ominous places I have ever seen !
To stand dead center of what is left of the crater for the first ever nuclear detonation is a little chilling , And still slightly Radioactive !







Yeah , pretty Boring , You have to go there to appreciate the vastness of the area !
The Monument in the middle , is actual Ground Zero
