CARLSBAD, NEW MEXICO AREA









We had a long drive from Fredericks burg, TX to the KOA just north of Carlsbad NM. Beautiful scenery seen on that drive. The first picture shown is a grove of pecan trees. I never saw so many groves of pecan trees before. Oil production and pecan groves are very important to the economy near Carlsbad and Artesia NM. Our first full day we drove to Roswell and walked through the UFO Museum, then on to Ruiodoso to check out the Inn of the Mountain Gods and Casino. Very nice hotel and casino, had a really good lunch in the hotel buffet. The winding road was part of the safety corridor drive along Lincoln State park.

  1. Are you still RVing? My husband and I are doing a similar road trip, but just for 2.5 months. No RV. Just a tent and hotels.
