The Very Large Array

Wendy and are celebrating our 4 year anniversary in TorC by leaving

this little town more often to explore New Mexico. This week we drove

to our nearby radio telescope array. This was a day trip wit Sesame.

The same VLA (Very Large Array) was featured in the book / movie

"Contact" by Carl Sagan. It's hard to spend over 30 minutes there as

there is only a 1/4 mile walk, small gallery and store. If you are

fortunate enough to go on the correct weekends in the Spring/Fall

which overlap the Trinity site opening you can get a full guided tour

of the facility. Sesame came along for the ride - she goes everywhere

as she is now a official therapy dog.
