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 Spell
Not very long ago, Dr. Pepperberg began trying to teach Alex and another gray parrot, Griffin, to sound out phonemes, which are the sounds that letters and letter combinations represent. English has forty phonemes altogether. She and her colleagues wanted to see if the birds understood that words are made out of letters that could be recombined to make other words, so they started training the birds with magnetic refrigerator letters.
