Chillin' in Carlsbad

We arrived in Carlsbad, New Mexico Saturday afternoon. We spent the afternoon touring around the area and getting a lay of the land. Then yesterday we went to the Carlsbad Canyons and spent the entire day taking a couple of the tours, the 'Natural" Entrance and the Big Room. We had a great time. Just the scenery on the way to the caverns was unbelievable. We've never seen anything like it. It's a complete desert with the Guadalupe mountains as a backdrop...quite pretty, in an odd way.

We were exhausted today after a combined 5 mile hike in the caverns yesterday, so we took the day off and just chilled hangin' around the 'house'. We're planning on spending the day tomorrow at Sitting Bull Falls and a local wildlife area. We're also going to Roswell this week to attend the UFO museum. Also on the agenda this week is the White Sands dunes of New Mexico. That will pretty much wrap up our activity for our week in Carlsbad.

We're tentatively planning on heading to Santa Fe this Saturday for a week. We have some minor warranty work needed and it's a great location for exploring before we move to Albuquerque the following week for the Good Sam rally. I'm still trying to figure out this 'bloggin' stuff, I've loaded a few pictures from our trip to the caverns, but still having problems with where they're placed on the page. But...at least they're there! Well, we're off to Roswell, New Mexico tomorrow to take in the UFO museum, which is supposed to be the largest UFO museum in the world. So...stay tuned!
