Gassed up in Big Spring and drove to the Carlsbad Caverns, just into New Mexico. Took the Big Room tour and rented the audio devices that really help in understanding the cave. The cave was beautiful, of course.
Drove to Las Cruces, NM where we went found the village of Mesilla nearby. This was a stop on the Butterfield Stage Line in the 1800's and today is a mercado with many shopps and restaurants. We ate at LaPosta and had some of the best Mexican food we have ever enjoyed. We dry-camped (again) at the brand new Wal-Mart in Las Cruces. The security guard was very concerned about parking us in the safest, yet most remote area possible. In this location, we are able to extend our sliders which makes middle-of-the-night potty trips MUCH easier!
