5/10 & 11 - Las Cruces, NM


Our view of the sunset at the KOA in Las Cruces, NM

A huge agave plant at the KOA
Guess who sledding -not on snow, but on sand!

Trying to climb the sand dune in order to slide back down. It was also very windy at the top of the dune

Mike on his one slide down the dune

A field trip - sledding down the dunes! Do we do that kind on Bainbridge?

We left Junction, TX and headed for Las Cruces where we stayed in another KOA with a wonderful view and a functioning swimming pool. From this campground we went to White Sands National Monument. We did not have time to go to the White Sands military facility. This is where the 1st atomic bomb was tested. You can only see that sight on the 1st Saturday of the month, so we missed that also. We went to a quilt shop and did their Wednesday a.m. farmer's market before heading out to the next stop over.
