NEW MEXICO: THE LAND OF ENCHANTMENT

A quick update for now!

Highlights from White Sands: Ever wanted to play in snow without freezing yer digits off? Head out to White Sands National Monument and sled down the warm hills of almost-soft almost-powder! Be sure to get there before all the tour buses full of rowdy children get there and tear up the dunes.

Highlights from Dripping Springs, Las Cruces, NM: What used to be a ‘resort’ in the late 1800’s soon turned into a tuberculosis sanatorium. Beware of ghosts. Dripping is a very accurate description of the springs as well.
