Saturday 5am....The Anderson & Thompsons arrive! ...and crash, for the most part! (for those not in the family, my sister Nik decided to drive to Albuquerque from northern Utah with her four kids for spring break and brought Besty & T-diz with them for extra fun...and drivers...and crowd control...and for photographers...LOTS of reasons!) Tanner drove all night, and only slept 30 min before leaving with Micah to visit the Trinity site -- what a stud!
Making breakfast for the troops
The Trinity Site is the location where the world's first nuclear explosion took place on July 16th, 1945. It's located on White Sands Missile Range in south central NM and is only open for visitors 2x a year (it's a pain to hide all the alien spacecraft wreckage that's normally strewn across the range for weapons tests -- keep in mind that the Trinity Site is only 140 miles from Roswell, NM, the crash site of an alleged alien craft in July 1947).
-building the bomb-
-blowing the bomb-
UFO conspiracists hypothesize that radiation from trinitite (or "desert glass") created by the nuclear blast caused the guidance systems on the alien spacecraft to malfunction, resulting in the crash.
Micah, holding radioactive Trinitite they found on the ground. We made him wash his hands before dinner that night.
