Day 2 in Tularosa, NM 4-19-08



The low last night was 52 and the high today was 79...at least here in Tularosa where our trailer is. It was in the 80's down in Alamogordo.


Today we did some laundry and drove around the backroads getting our bearings. We like the village of Tularosa...it has a nice mix of historical and tasteful new construction that fits the region perfectly.


After the sun starts to set the cottontail bunnies comeout of the woodwork around here grazing on the little bits of lawn at each RV site. The quail get really active then too, their sounds are sometimes comical.


So that is about all for us today. Fuel prices are still rising. Talked to my friend in Plumas County in California, she had most recently seen $3.75 for regular and today paid $4.09. I didn't even ask what diesel was! Those petroleum execs must be redoing their gold-plated bathrooms again...ridiculous!
Isn't this a wicked, mean looking cactus?
