Ty's Take
A roller skating rink opening back up is the kind of thing that sounds small until you remember what it means to a town like ours, where families are stretched thin between shift work at the base and the long drives out to anywhere else that has something to do on a Friday night. Meanwhile, the Sacramento Mountains Foundation keeps showing up with real money for real needs, the city's working on a plan for where we actually want to be in five years instead of just letting it happen to us, and yeah, there's always some fugitive passing through. That's Alamogordo right now, all of it at once: a place that's still figuring out who we are, holding on to what we've got, and trying to build something our kids might stay for.
