Roswell, New Mexico definitely qualifies as one of those interesting places. We decided to visit the town most associated with UFO’s and alien sitings. Yes, I do mean little green men …. or should I say little green women?.... let’s just say little green beings and leave it at that. The famous 1947 Roswell UFO Incident has been the subject of a rumored government cover-up for decades. Speculation about the validity of the Roswell UFO crash still flies like a Husky’s fur during shedding season!
If you are a fan of Katherine Heigl you may have seen the popular TV show she starred in…. no not Grey’s Anatomy, the other one. I mean the Roswell TV series that aired in the early 2000’s. It was about a group of teenagers; 4 alien and 3 of the human variety. I loved that show and it made me want to visit the alien capital of the U.S., Roswell, New Mexico. Since we lived right next door, in Arizona, we did. As usual, we decided to take dogs along for the ride.

Icy and Phoebe taking in one of the Alien exhibits. Phoebe's not so sure about this; what are they doing to that poor alien on the table?! |
Phoebe playing with the stuffed alien toy they gave her at the gift shop. Icy got one too but in typical Husky fashion, she ripped it to shreds long before we returned home! |
The
mountains that surround Roswell are gorgeous, maybe that’s why the aliens
decided to land there – Ha Ha! Once you’ve
had enough alien stuff, there are several places to
take your dog for a long walk or a hike.
Check out Bottomless Lakes State Park or Bitter Lake Wildlife Refuge.

DeleteHi Jenna. Yes, I finally figured out that for certain photos the auto crop works best. I loved the museum, such a hokey place but lots of fun! All the documentation from news articles was so interesting to read but my favorite part was the spaceship which "took off" every 20 minutes or so - so cool! I couldn't successfully imbed the video myself so I added the link. I'm still getting the hang of all the cool features of Blogger!
