Rt 380E Socorro, NM to Brownsfield, TX












I wore my heated jacket and turned my heated hand grips on high. The temperature ranged from 42-52F and the last hour of my drive was through the flat, flat lands of Texas with a hefty 20-30 knot cross-wind trying to blow me off the motorcycle. I stopped about an hour earlier than I had planned because I couldn't take the wind anymore.

I saw a few aliens when I passed through Rosewell, New Mexico, the town famous for a reported UFO landing. I also passed by Trinity, the sight of the first atomic bomb dropped on July 16, 1945. Maybe the UFO landing and the atomic bomb have something in common.
