Ingram, Texas 1/13/2013

Made it to Ingram, in the Texas Hill Country




Johnson Creek RV Park is a nice place and is in a Pecan 
orchard.


Small RV park with lots of pecans


Nice sites


Orchard a good place to run the dog




This is the tractor they use to harvest pecans. The attachment
on the back wraps around the tree and shakes the tree
really hard and the nuts fall to the ground.


Every morning and evening a herd of these Axis Deer
came into the orchard to feed


There is a chapel at the RV Park for Sunday services,
weddings, and funerals.



Boss and his vary close friend "Cooper"


And another friend.......

and another.....

and another.


Carlsbad, New Mexico 1/8/2013

Stopped in Carlsbad on the way to Texas


Visited the famous caverns, quite a sight.


Took the self guided tour of the caverns and a guided tour that went
to newer opened areas. At one stop they shut off the lights
to  show how dark it is. Spooky! 



                                       Before we got to our destination in Ingram, we just had
                                         to stop in Ft. Stockton, Texas to see the giant
                                                             Roadrunner. Got big ones in Texas!

Elephant Butte, New Mexico 1/6/2013

Before Christmas we dropped the trailer off near Elephant Butte,
NM. at Cedar Cove RV Park in Truth or Consequences.
Nice place, lot's of country for Boss to run.


                                                    On  the way to EB on Route 66 in
                                                                       Gallup, NM.


Had dinner in Gallup at the El Rancho
Hotel, where many Hollywood types 
like John Wayne stayed at while filming 
Cowboy movies. Interesting place! 

Hot Springs we soaked in, Truth or Consequences

                                                     Hot springs were on the bank of the Rio
                                                    Grande River, which didn't have much
                                                        water in it while we were there.

Home, 12/1/12
