Deming, New Mexico – February 15, 2009

We are on the road again with Ann and Lyn.  They are pulling  their Airstream and we are in our Winnebago View.  We drove from Santa Fe to Deming, New Mexico in five hours, a trip of 300 plus miles. This drive south is familiar to us – 100-mile views to  distant mountains to the south, parched dry and brown land.  Once we were south of Albuquerque we passed through Socorro and then headed down to Truth Or Consequences and to Hatch and into Deming. The poor economy shows in these small towns. We stayed at the Little Vineyard RV Park in Deming, a graveled affair with no vineyard in site. The next morning we were up early and on on our way to Mesa, Arizona.
