Extended Stay

After our fun day at White Sands National Park, we spent today trying to figure out how to fit all of the places we want to see in this area into the next three days. Ain't gonna happen!

So, we reviewed our options.
1) Leave without seeing everything.
2) Stay another week. ($85)
3) Stay a month. ($100)

The weather has turned beautiful and is forecasted to be this way now that spring is almost here. Yay! That made our decision simple. We are going to stay here at Edgington RV Park for a month. The owners let us roll over this week into the monthly rate. Neat people!

So, we can get our mail here until April 11. (If you want to send $100 bills, they will be gratefully accepted.) And we can see Three Rivers Petroglyphs, the Sunspot Solar Observatory, Inn of the Mountain Gods (casino), Tularosa, Cloudcroft, Valley of Fire and maybe some more rockhounding. Of course, we will return to White Sands. In fact, once a month they conduct a special trip to Lake Lucero where all of the sand originates. This month it's scheduled for March 28. We're already planning on attending that.

To my dear kids in Texas, we're working our way there, only verrrrrrry slowly.
