Ok the cows are not sketchy but there were thousands and thousands and thousands of cows on our way toward El Paso. We have never seen so many cows and we are from Wisconsin. So with that.....it was a very fragrant drive.
We arrived at our camp and it was super sketchy. Probably the most dumpy place we have ever stayed at and we both have been camping our whole entire lives. Now I know you can pick up and roll to the next place, but why!! Every one need to experience sketch. There were some pretty run down, boarded up campers and yes, people did live in them. No pictures today so use your imagination.
I have come to the conclusion that if you want to see pretty towns and campgrounds you have to go to the very touristy area of New Mexico or maybe we are just traveling the wrong roads. If you don't.... you will see trailer home after trailer home & junk all over the yards (not true for all but many). It appears that New Mexicans can purchase a piece of land and do what ever they want with it. Yes this is the land of the free and home of the brave. I love that there are no restrictions (or at least none that I have seen). It may not be what people call beautiful or scenic but it is REAL people living how ever they choose.
We are heading to Las Cruces in a couple days to park on the street in front of a friends house for about a week. Hopefully she has the time to be tour guide. If not, we will be happy to just be planted for a week and have the use of her pool and hot tub. Hopefully I can post some fabulous touristy pictures for you all. If not you may just get pictures of Dick in the hot tub!!! Yikes!!
