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.

So I made my stop at the Apple store, used their high speed internet connection to upgrade a few OS X apps and iPhone & iPad apps that are too big for my Verizon broadband accounts to gracefully handle, and managed to get out of there without any new toys. Amazing!

Walking stick

Having some time on my hands I came back to Hidden Valley and finished up the walking stick I had been working on. More on that tomorrow.

The Speed of Darkness

Many scientists revere and study the speed of light, but what is the speed of darkness? What is the speed of the unseen? Darkness is already everywhere at once, and light is but a momentary interruption.
