Bandolier National Monument was a well-developed park that
made us want to work for the park department. The employees and
volunteers there got to stay in lovely houses near the park.

This site was an adobe village with many
adjoined rooms and two kivas in the center. A kiva is a dug-out
circular room with mudbrick walls and a ladder coming down in the middle.

Here I'm climbing up into one of the cliff
houses.

After Bandolier, we stopped by Los Alamos
because I wanted to see another national lab. The coolest thing of
the town was the SGI office in a strip mall next to a dry cleaner.
I would have taken more pictures, but I was nervous about looking
like a terrorist or something. So on the way out of town, I took
this shot of a mushroom-cloud over Los Alamos as we were leaving.
Go figure.
