Roswell, New Mexico

[gnagel]

I captured some images of Roswell during my road trip through New Mexico.

1- McDonald's got into the spirit of the place with the world's only UFO McDonald's. The lobby is in the shape of a flying saucer.

2- International UFO Museum and Research Center (appeared to me to be an international tourist trap)

3

4- Alien Invasion Store...there are a number of such shops in the downtown area

5

6- This was one of those photos where I was experiencing fantastic light and was frantically looking for anything to shoot before it went away. The nearest thing to me was this bank office building.

7- County Courthouse and Pat Garrett statue. This "Ride to Destiny" sculpture by Robert Summers commemorates his ride of 80 miles to Maxwell Ranch where he put a bullet through the heart of Billy the Kid.

Thanks for looking...

All that work on a McDonald's and those pesky aliens STILL won't visit for a lunch chat! Maybe Wendy can entice them with her double.

Ha! Great set, Glenn and #1 is most definitely my favorite!
