Arizona to New Mexico 4/5-4/6

Left Tucson this am. Yesterday was an errand and repair day do nothing to report. Driving into New Mexico a long strip of highway was covered in California Poppies!!!
We then passed the weirdest rock formations!
then changed to arrid lands.
We stopped for lunch in a tiny town and had a huge New Mexican lunch!
And then our first glimpse at White Sands National Park from the highway, tomorrow's destination.
No dinner tonight. Lol

Leaving Big Bend heading towards Hot Springs NP

So sad to say goodbye to my desert plant friends! They hold duch a special place in my heart for some reason. I think it's because they are like the underdogs. They flourish beyond our belief! Good bye Big Bend! I hope to see you again!! One of our last Mexican Lunches and we struck gold!! Tiny hole in the wall. So good and fresh . They make their own tortillas. So tender and amazing.  Then through the Texas oil fields. Dust everywhere! And you could actually smell petroleum in the air. Kind of surreal after the beautiful desert. Finished the day with one more Mexican meal! Omg sauted gulf shrimp SO SO SO GOOD!! A perfect end to our desert extravaganza! Tomorrow off to Hot Springs NP
