Dawn, Hidden Valley RV Park, Tijeras NM, April 24, 2010
Hidden Valley RV Park is an older 100 site park on a wooded hillside off NM 333 just east of Tijeras, New Mexico with basic gravel sites and full hookups. It's nothing fancy but is quiet (except for I-40 traffic climbing out of ABQ) and clean and handy to Albuquerque. The sites are a little small and close together by today's standards but are quite serviceable.

- So much for Albuquerque. I came here in large part to get the front end checked out and aligned to correct the altered right front tire wear that cropped up on the way out here with the trailer. But once I took a really close look at the tire wear and the mileage on the tire I decided it was not excessive and scuttled the plan. Image: Hickory walking stick, November 8, 2011.

- Well, I moved over near Albuquerque today to get on with my chores here and head south before winter sets in. I didn't get here quite soon enough I guess. It's been snowing lightly this afternoon and overnight temps in the mid twenties are forecast for the next few nights. Bah! Image: On Point, Sumner Lake State Park, Fort Sumner NM, November 4, 2011.

- I drove up to Albuquerque yesterday so I could easily make it to Tom's RV Services and Sales first thing in the morning right on schedule to get the new Dometic refrigerator they ordered for me installed. I and the refrigerator arrived on schedule. However... Image: Poo, Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge, San Antonio NM, March 6, 2011.

- The tech at the Genius Bar in the Apple store replaced the swollen battery in my laptop for a not so small fee. I had hoped they would warrantee it but no dice. Man, that store was mobbed! - in an upscale mall with very few folks wandering around the other stores. Apple must be doing something right.

- Bah! - I was out too early this morning and besides, I found myself disconcerted by the trees and came back with just a few pictures - all lousy. I haven't had to figure trees into my picture taking for a long time. Image: Dawn, Hidden Valley RV Park, Tijeras NM, April 24, 2010.

- Boy am I going to miss my morning walks in this bounteous Rio Grande valley. I've had a great 3 month stay here at the Bosque, spring is well under way, and now it's time for me to head east for the summer. I'm pulling out today on the first leg of that long journey.

Shopping for sensation
The purest example of human shopping I know of can be seen by watching a child go through life touching absolutely everything. You’re watching that child shop for information, for understanding, for knowledge, for experience, for sensation. Especially for sensation, otherwise why would he have to touch or smell or taste or hear anything twice? Keep looking: Watch a dog. Watch a bird. Watch a bug. You might say the ant is searching for suitable food. I say he is shopping.
