lcarreauAnother great photo ...

Voted 10/10

Gotta love those water misters, Ray!
There's a lot of people that seem to
knock or criticize technology and its so-
called "advancements," and I am one of
them. But in this case, you can't have
people dropping like flies because of
the heat and arid conditions. Who are
the organizers of this reinactment???
I would like to write a letter to them
personally, and THANK them for putting
this on. We must never lose sight of our
historic values, right Ray? THANKS!!!

The water mister.....this is where you slow down to enjoy it! White Sands Missile Range and the NMSU ROTC Dept. are the organizers.
