City of Rocks, New Mexico and El Paso, Texas Oct. 8 & 9

We are finally on our way home!.  Of course we have to make some stops first.  The first stop was a really unique State campground in N.M.  Called the City of Rocks.  It was quite a surprise!.  We were out in the middle of the desert going into the camp, and found clusters of huge rocks.  Every primitive site had a background of rocks.  They were formed by volcanic ash made from lava flow that sculpted these amazing rocks.  We had a beautiful view of the mountains across from our camp site.  Hiking the desert was fun.
The next day we drove into El Paso, Texas and found a campground that was also in the desert with mountains in the background.  We drove into El Paso and found an art festival.  We went into the Art Museum and really enjoyed that.  So much to do and so little time!  See you soon
