Visiting New Mexico

From New Mexico 3/24/09



Yesterday, Char and I (somewhat sadly) departed from Tucson and drove to Las Cruces, NM. The appearance of the desert changed several times as we drove thru several elevattion changes. We even saw several shallow bodies of water. (At first, I thought one was a mirage!)

The Las Cruces KoA Campground sits on a bluff overlooking the city. The view is beautiful, and it's even better at night.

Today we visited the historic village of Old Mesilla, just south of Las Cruces. Since we arrived about 1 PM we decided to visit the Double Eagle restaurant. Wow! What beautiful decorating. We could have spent the whole afternoon there, pretending we were aristocrats.

Tomorrow's weather forecast is for high winds (up to 40 MPH), so we'll probably drive "the cage" down to Stahmanns pecan farm.
