I have been rock hunting in Rock Hound State Park in Deming - Found petrified wood and opals.
I camped in Las Cruces and came face to face with a mountain lion at night - he ran away when I shined a light on him.
I was preparing my lecture on the Confederate Invasion of New Mexico in 1862. Visited La Mesilla, Fort Craig, Valverde battle site, Glorietta Pass.
Visited the Palace of the Governors in Santa Fe to see the exhibit on that campaign including the skeletons and relics of several Union soldiers found near Glorietta. Also went to Forked Lightning Ranch, formerly owned by actress Greer Garson, which was the site of the Union HQ for the Battle of Glorietta Pass.
Went through Truth or Consequences.
Visited Gila Cliff Dwellings National Park - late in the day so did not go into the ruins.
Camped in Raton in the rain.
How is that?
