Sunset in the Park, Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM, November 14, 2011%
Nice
We do like these western sunsets.
See those yuccas in the foreground? That's where the pair of Curve-billed Thrashers were hanging out the other day. They stayed just long enough for me to grab my camera and get a bunch of shots before they went on about their business.
We do like those serendipitous moments too.

- Verizon cell phone service - good signal
- Verizon EVDO service - very good signal and access speed ( I have to qualify this - during my January 2008 visit the signal and access speed was excellent - in January 2009 it was practically non-existent during the day and slow at night with unpredictable short periods of excellent access)

That Ideas Should Freely Spread
If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it. Its peculiar character, too, is that no one possesses the less, because every other possesses the whole of it. He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.
