Day 7: Not-So-Large Array?

We had a day to kill before we had to be in Socorro at the Capitol Bar, so Susan and I decided we wanted a photo op at the Very Large Array, one of (or "THE," perhaps) largest radio observatory in the world. We kind of had this vision of the movie Contact, with fields of radio antennae...and how cool would it be to sing a song to the universe?

It's about an hour and a quarter to Socorro and another hour out to the VLA...the vistas were in fine form and the sky was popping with blue between dark rain clouds. When we got there, we realized it that easy highway viewing really didn't give us the Jodie Foster-esque experience we expected...but we found a suitable dish anyway.

The Capitol Bar gig was quite fun and now we're headed back to Amarillo/Ft. Worth/Austin...
