"Look at that sad bit of hopefulness."
-my cousin Cameron, commenting on the 38 year gap since the last time Hobbs was the state champion

(He also said, "Right now, 'ambivalence' is my favorite word, but I don't know if that's a good idea."  Evidently some of this silliness is genetic.)

Back to another sky photo - what IS it with me lately?

I love the way the old building and the bright sky are the same color!

Two rows of pecan trees in the 3,200 acre orchard.

I love the way the branches NEARLY touch, leaving that thin line of sky.

Makeup #7


We stopped for lunch in Santa Rosa, New Mexico, and while we waited for our (not very good) food, read through a tourist guide.  That's when we learned about a tiny town south of Santa Rosa on the Pecos River.  Usual story:  the railroad went to Santa Rosa instead, and the place called Puerto de Luna got smaller and smaller.

The guide promised a scenic drive along the river.  We had nothing but time, and so took the side trip to PDL, as it's known locally.
