Ok, I have to say I have been gone a few days. I went out of town, but I got lots of great blog pictures! This is once again at Three Rivers. This old school house is just behind the old trading post/bar. It used to accomodate the children from the ranchers in the area. At one point in the 1970's a couple of guys thought it would be a good idea to haul the trunk of a mature (dead) cottonwood into the building. It is still there. So in the small one room of the schoolhouse you walk around the massive tree... It sold recently, I have no idea of the current owners plans. I will do some research and see what I can find out about the history.A blog primarily about southern New Mexico and the Tularosa Basin. Observations and moments that escape us on a normal day make it into the blog. Photographs of the truly unique landscape,including the towns of Alamogordo, La Luz, Cloudcroft, Tularosa, Ruidoso, High Rolls, Mountain Park, Weed, Pinon, Sacramento and other communities.
