Today we walked on the asphalt path along NM4 in White Rock.  Spouse went a little past Piedra Loop and turned around.  I continued a little past Gate 12.  We park at the WR branch of the library.  Noticed for sale signs on commercial property on Longview Drive.  Brochures were out so I don't know any details.   This is an area of business condos that hardly have any businesses renting them.  Wish they'd redevelop it into residential condos!

In the winter, I always love to walk this path in White Rock because the views of the Sangres and Jemez Mountains are far ranging and beautiful!

At Los Alamos Historical Museum, we checked out exhibit of photos of Las Conchas fire.  One of them misspelled Sangres as Sangrias!!  Well, maybe we could rename them!  Seeing the photos reminded us of before the town was evacuated.  The afternoon the fire started, June 26, 2011, spouse was watching Super 8 at the Reel Deal Theater which had scenes of a wildfire with smoke billowing over a mountain.  He was stunned to come out of the movie theatre and see real life billowing smoke plume.  I walked on the Pueblo Canyon Rim Trail from East Park to the library downtown. I didn't see the smoke plume until I got up off the canyon rim.  The smoke plume took over the whole sky at such an astounding rate.  That evening from our house, we could see the fire as it torched Bandelier.
