And Now, I Am Going

Filed under: History |

Two years ago I stated ”One Day, I Will Go.” Today I am fulfilling that pledge:

By the time you read this, I will be driving to Alamogordo, New Mexico, and stay for two days while I visit the Trinity Site during its semiannual open house on the first Saturday in April (the other being the first Saturday in October). I have my room reserved. I also snared the last seat on the Tour Motorcoach, which is first in line of a long caravan of approximately 200 vehicles, so I don’t have to bust my truck any more than I have to. The tour will be at the site for approximately three hours, during which I will see not only the obelisk which marks the REAL Ground Zero, but also Jumbo, the McDonald Ranch House, and a corner of the original crater still preserved and loaded with trinitite.
And of course I’m taking the Official Camera with me, so stay tuned for some good pix and an extensive report when I return.
