Julien and I have somewhat of a love affair with White Sands. If we can, whenever we are in the States, we go there. I checked my archives for our world trip and see that I failed to make a post about our last visit, which I shall rectify now. How's that for catching up on blogging?

The first time I took Julien (and two of his friends) to

This world.

This world!

Thank you.

I need to go listen to "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness," so I can hear what you heard when you made this beautiful post.

It is a marvelous, marvel-filled place, isn't it?

My iTunes is on random shuffle, so the song came up all on its own as I was nearing the Music field and the end of the post. :) I thought the title was pretty fitting.

My pleasure. I got a kick out of looking through the photos again, especially a couple of gag shots we took for Julien's brother.

I dont know if you remember but I lived at Holloman AFB for 4 and half years from age 4 until 9. I absolutley love the sands. It wasnt uncommon to go for a picnic or just an afternoon. Daddy was statoined at Holloman and Mother worked for the White Sands Missle range. Next time you are in the area you should also check out the Malpias, an ancient lava flow in the same area. Love the pics of the sprout.

I do remember, and I remember that I discovered the sands with you and Tom. I meant to mention that, but it was getting late when I made the post and I forgot. :(
