Sunrise, Leasburg Dam State Park, Radium Springs NM, January 26, 2009
Huh?
This fine sunny day ended with my jaw dropping as a THIRD silver Lazy Daze Mid Bath model RV's rolled into this small park. That's pretty amazing given how few silver Lazy Daze Mid Baths exist.
The second arrived yesterday, inhabited by a fine fulltiming couple from Iowa I met when I was over at Oliver Lee but this new arrival is new to me.

Alex Can Think
Animal researchers are finally beginning to catch up to the little old ladies in tennis shoes who say Fifi the poodle can think. The fights are always between a big group of experts who think animals don't have a lot of feelings or aren't very smart, and a much smaller group of researchers who think there's a lot more going on inside an animal's head than we know. The really nasty fights always seem to go one way: it's always the animal "debunkers" who are on the attack. At least, I don't remember a single big academic fight where someone got fired or lost their funding for doing a study where the animal turned out to be dumber than people thought, and lots of studies like that have been done. Claiming that an animal can't do something isn't considered blasphemous.
