Las Cruses, New Mexico-November 22, 2011

Not a word has been said, but I think on this date in 1963, Pres. Kennedy was assasinated. That was quite a while ago. Ok, we had a good trip from Elephant Butte. This park in Las Cruses is very nice though a bit dusty. Las Cruses is a very busy city. It's clean, too. And it is not depressing like E.Butte. We will be here at least a week. The mountains east of here are quite jagged and very unique. That means they are young, comparatively speaking. We've not seen any quite like these. They look blurry through the front window. We went to walk around Old Mesilla Village and found so many fun items. But we don't have room to store them. We ate dinner at La Posta de Mesilla. It was just delicious. We may go back there again before we leave. On the way here we passed an exit for the New Mexico Spaceport. Have you ever heard of that? Were they going to launch people into space from there? That was a surprise to us. We also saw, on the other side of the road, Border Patrol agents going through every car, truck, van, motorhome, anything on the road. Might we assume they were looking for illegals? That really caused a backup. We are glad they were not on our side of the interstate. We have so many places we could hide somebody, but would not. I think we will find some very interesting things to do here. Stay tuned..............
