A Soggy Caravan To Los Alamos
Around 9:45 a.m. Sunday morning, in drizzling weather, 7 Corvettes
& 1 BMW from NMCA took off from Albuquerque for the Ragsdale's
residence near Los Alamos, NM. We met up with the Atomic City Vettes
(newly formed Corvette club representing northern NM) just outside of
White Rock and they guided us to the Ragsdale's home. When we arrived
Cathy Ragsdale had prepared a delicious luncheon for all of us.
The weather continued as a light rain while we were there, but after
we headed down to Valles Caldera with another 8 Corvettes from the
Atomic City Club, the weather began to clear. We stopped at
Valles Caldera for pictures (15 Corvettes in all) and were surprised
by a couple traveling through NM from Aurora, Colorado. They pulled
in and introduced themselves as Kathy Hall and Dean Karch. They hadn't
seen each other for 19 years and were spending some time together
catching up. They joined the NMCA group as we headed on through Jemez.
By this time the glorious sun shone through and the rest of the drive
was beautiful.
