Ah Bliss

Fort Bliss that is.

Just got back from a couple three days down at Ft. Bliss. Been about 12 years since I was last there and it was nice to see that too many things hadn't changed. I did get a bit turned around the first night on the ground, almost as if my internal compass was 180* out. I kept going the wrong way ! Surely it isn't age catching up to me, must have been those two lousy handfuls of peanuts I had as a meal.

Weather was near perfect, crisp in the morning and mid 50's by mid-afternoon. Wish I'd of had a little more time on the ground before having to come back. One night I did get to spend many hours (after hours) alone in one of the museums, going through boxes and boxes of photographic history. Very neat stuff! Although, it is a little strange being all alone in a museum after closing.

Anyone else ever have a museum all to themselves before?
