Hey Sands - If you're stumblin' home from the neighbor's some night, be careful . . . . . that plant by your front door could kill ya.
Have you checked all around the site for wood yet?

Is that a big pink elephant next to that plant? ;D What's the building, is that like a community center for the RV park? Sure looks a lot better than mine Sands, at least it's brown and green instead of white.

Very cool john, make sure you stop in at Rockhound state park. thers lots to pick up there, and it outside of Deming. That plant is an Agave, certain types [blue agave} is what teqiula is made from.

Looks like you found a cool place to stay John. So, you've gone from pink flamigo's in Florida to pink elephants in New Mexico! Get your truck unloaded so you can get your butt out to those mountains and collect some nice rock. You got my address!

Nice view! You're in vacation land for people around here. That's one of the many places people over here haul their trailers to enjoy a nice weekend or so.
If that is an agave, you might not want to stumble into it while talking to the pink elephant. Those things have been known to pop tires...

Sands
Good to see you made the trip without any major problems. Your old saw is doing fine and misses you. I hope you don't forget to send it a nice chunk of rock for Christmas. LOL. Have a great time John and
Keep um' rollin.
