Sunday Dec 29

This morning we went to Rebecca's church.  It is a friendly church.  People seem to know who Rebecca is.  At least they great her by name.  That is nice.

Then pet care - this was our last time of doing that.  This is Peaches.

Home for lunch.  Nathan had not gone to church so he had lunch on the table for us.  We got on the road soon after that.  We drove to see the Very Large Array (I am sorry to say I had never heard of it)  It is a huge radio telescope.  27 antenna which have been in a ton of movies like Contact with Jodie Foster.  We saw a movie about it and then walked around on a self guided tour.  Very impressive.

 The sun was starting to go down as we left and we had a long way to go.

Supper in Roswell.  We ate at Tia Juana's.  

The token Alien in Roswell. 

We made it to Carlsbad about 10 pm.  Checked into the hotel - it is clean and will be ok but half the things in here are falling apart.  Kinda funny.  Oh well.  It is only for 2 nights.
