Don... have you seen the "spaceship" / "moon dwelling" house in Rio Rancho? I just found out about it tonight when out for a motorcycle ride with my daughter. It is just off of Northern, just barely off of 528, and to the North of the first church on Northern. Very odd house! I will try and take a picture of it to post.

I googled to see if I could find a pic of it.. found this instead. Probably same guy.

Other than it's been there a long time, not much. It's been there since the 80's IIRC; one of the first homes in the neighborhood. Now some of the late arrivals have complained it doesn't "fit in". Try and figure that out. [crz]
