Last summer Dominion Power had a helicopter, dropping workers onto the power tower and they installed the brass (I think brass) spikes to keep the birds off the towers! Well, Dominion is not as smart as the Eagles; they still land in the middle! 🤣Moving/Sale update:Packing has started and the condo looks like a war zone! Movers come on the 3rd! Good thing, buyer has purchased all furniture! All we need to move are…

When we left Organ Pipe National Monument we headed to Alamo Lake State Park. The park features a 26 sq. mile lake, wild burros and many, many quail! The road to the park is over 30 miles from the main road! There are lots of exploring opportunities at this park and you are able to get off the beaten path on dirt roads through BLM land. We were able to fly the drone on some dirt roads to get shots of the lake. We saw our first wild burros on the road from the visitor center! The burros…
