Break in rambling

It’s been a while since I posted—and a while since I rambled. (Even the two photos above were taken from just outside my car, and not on a walk.) You should know from previous posts that the weather doesn’t usually keep me from walking, and it hasn’t been the weather that has kept me inside. I was taking care not to get sick before a visit with family in Roswell, New Mexico. I didn’t get much rambling done there, either, and left from the local airport early yesterday morning.

ROW 3-20-18The Roswell International Air Center is located on the former Walker Air Force Base. While these days it is used to store and disassemble old airplanes, it played a big part in the 1947 “Roswell UFO Incident“. This short Smithsonian video gives a good description of what goes on these days.

It’s been snowing off and on all day, and I never made it out for a ramble. (I did feed the deer and Tom the turkey, but I didn’t get any photos. And, in case you’re wondering, one of the neighbors made sure all the animals were fed while I was gone—although I don’t know if he sang to them.) 🙂

Deer after eating 3-10-18Here is a photo of the deer I took last week after feeding. You can see that some are resting to chew their cuds, and others are grazing or hoping I will throw more apples. I shot this video of Tom the turkey the same day.

I plan to get out for a ramble tomorrow, and then I’ll let you know what’s new in French Broad Hollow.
