Wishing you well from a
few miles north of Rodeo NM, literally the Middle of NoWhere! We're
parked at Rusty's RV Ranch & will stay here a couple more weeks.
We're having Thanksgiving dinner with other guests right here at the rv
park -- Rusty's doing turkey & ham & everyone's bringing sides
to share.
This place is in the desert in SW New Mexico right on the
Arizona border & 40 miles north of the Mexican border. It's quiet,
clean, well-sited, and sparsely
occupied at the moment. We have mountains (Chiricahua, Pelloncillo, and
Animas) about 300 degrees around us; Rusty (lady formerly of Denver
area) powers the park with a large solar array.
While there are no malls,
Walmart, Costco, etc., there's a lot of hiking & exploring to do: mountain
towns, ghost towns, ancient Indian ruins including rock art, a Desert
Museum & Art Gallery in Rodeo . . . and it's a birder's destination +
it's a Dark Skies Community which attracts astronomers from all over
the world. We've really enjoyed being somewhere with NO streetlights
and city light pollution; the stars are quite amazing. Today we'll drive a few miles into the Arizona mountains, just a few miles away, do a little exploring, then come back to the park for pot-luck dinner.
Be Thankful for what you have, and please do what you can to ease the lives of those less fortunate.
