[THE PILGRIM]

Yesterday I was down at the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge.
Was approaching an intersection in a wooded area when OMG!
About 30 Javelinas ran across the side road.
By the time I got stopped and out of my SUV they were in heavy cover.
Not to worry! Tail end Charlie’s are everywhere, even Javelinas!

The closest I ever came was one of these:

I did my own knee replacement a while back, the hardest part was getting my leg in the vise on the workbench to work on it.

Mother and daughter. The smaller one was born early spring. We have a herd of about seven go through our property early morning and evening every day. The buck is a good size male with a small rack.

From our local airport, which was once used as a national guard base, they moved to a bigger base in the mid-1980s.

The pictures aren't great...

This is a local beach and amusement park. Currently shut down for the season but they open the beach for dogs in the off-season. My dogs love swimming and playing with dogs.

Now you might be thinking this looks a bit familiar? Well, if you walk on the boardwalk and wish to the Zoltan machine that you want to be Big, you may have an adventure...

Yes, this is where the Tom Hank movie Big had some scenes shot. Several other things have been filmed here over the years.

The place itself is loaded with history from its many original amusement rides, original wooden roller coaster, high-speed carousel, and an original carousel, and much more.

I spent many hours on the roller coaster.

Calabria Pork Store?

They make a really good extra hot soppressata.

Maybe a trip to Arthur Ave before Christmas is in order...

Need a care package?

I spent many hours on the roller coaster.

It's a fixture for every person in fifty miles, for generations.

I can remember riding the Ferris Wheel with my Grandfather fifty or so years ago.

I have lots of memories and we didn't go often.

My mom went as a child...

Watching the Rangers practice.

Now walking around the park with the new boardwalk and having the dogs on the beach.

When we finally get out of this area it will be a place I'll miss and have good memories of.

Yep, Calabria, but so many great stores in Little Italy as you know.
