... range in depth from 17-90 feet. Legend has it that cowboys tried to find the bottom of the lake by tying their saddle ropes together.<br><br>The bottom is covered with a silty-gypsum, similar to what's found at the White Sands National Monument. <br><br>By the time I arrive and string up my hammock in a copse of trees (the park has both RV and tent sites) it's already 5pm but the sun is still high and the temperature hot. I decide to make my dive, but skip the dry suit ...

... is full of UFO adorned paraphernalia, shops, streets &amp; buildings. <br><br>We went over to the Alien Museum &amp; met Malcolm McDowell. We all had quite a chat with him, the Aussie accent is always a drawcard. The boys talked sport, cricket, AFL, rugby. He was very pleasant to us all. The museum was full of newspaper articles &amp; copies of documents.<br><br>

... Andrea once and then she bowed out to let me play the locals. I was on form and was undefeated for all bar the last game of the night. Then we met a little dude from Hawaii called Keever. He annoyed me a little, he was drunk and a little pawing, but harmless enough. He challenged me to a game of pool assuring me that he would kick my but. Bring it on I said, rack 'em up.

Now you come to the Spring itself, the point where the water bubbles out of the rock behind which it flows as an underground river, forming a ...

And now, for the big announcement you've all been anxiously waiting for! Na-Nu Na-Nu My name is Mork and I come from the Planet Ork! Ok, that's not the real announcement. You have to be a little patient. Earth shattering news announcements, especially those concerning yours truly, take time to be released. And now back to our regularly scheduled blog! Up at the crack of dawn. Drive for 1 hour. Spend 1 hour touring a UFO Museum. Drive 4 hours ...

What an incredible day! One of my buddies, Tom, flew in yesterday from Michigan for a visit. He's had a rough couple of years after he crashed his airplane and almost took himself out. Even though he still struggles with some complications from that, he has resurrected an old passion...biking. About a year and a half after his accident he bought a Softail Deluxe and has now moved on to a 2008 Ultra ...

... crash and all the news articles and excuses the government made. I knew all that already. I did go to a gift shop that the owner had set up a back room of alien props that was much better then the museum.I am headed for Texas and will make a couple of stops there, so if you do not hear from me, I'll be out at the bar singing karaoke or something.

... from one place to another has started to wear on us and we're looking forward to three days at Guadalupe National Park in Texas without much to do there other than to hike and witness the desert. I've been enjoying "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" over the past couple of days. Good travel material, though I'm looking forward to finishing so that I can take a look through some of the (voluminous!) study materials ...
