Deming, NM

From 2010-02-28
Saturday morning we left Van Horn, Tx and drove to Deming, NM. We could not see the Rio Grande River but you could tell about where it was by the green agricultural area following along the river. The traffic was very heavy for a Saturday in El Paso. I thought we would never drive out of the city. It is spread out and goes for miles. We saw many pecan orchards and dairy farms from the Interstate. We crossed the Rio Grande just out of Las Cruces. There was hardly any water as much is used for irrigation.

We are in Deming, NM at the Escapee Park now and are in Mountain time. We changed our clocks and computers, but we will have to spring forward in a few weeks. We can see mountains with snow. Last night and today they had snow just north of us. We have had rain and wind gusts up to 28 mph. After attending an AOG church (thanks to Lorraine and Bruce for showing us the way), this afternoon we went to the ice cream social at the club house. A couple checked in from Missouri and I went over to talk to them for a few minutes. We sat with a nice group of people whom we exchanged stories and experiences with. We will be seeing one of them next week at the rally we are attending in Yuma.
