Where’s the Giant Coyote?
Today was our last day in Las Cruces for a while.
As I said yesterday, we always stay at this KOA because of the view.
Note the snow on the mountain tops.
Just beautiful!
After a great meal at La Posta last night, we slept in and then decided to go back to La Posta for lunch. You can’t have too much La Posta!
Last night it was supposed to get down to about 32 degrees, but here on the mountain side it got down to about 27 degrees.
Tonight it’s supposed to get down to 26 so I figure it will get down to about 20 here. This means I will be unhooking our water hose and draining it and our water filter to prevent damage from freezing.
After a great lunch at La Posta we headed to Wal-Mart to stock up on more ‘stuff’..
Arriving back at the rig, we settled in to goof-off the afternoon. I mean, isn’t that what it’s all about!
About 4:15 we left for supper at another favorite place of ours called El Comedor. On the way we stopped off at Radio Shack so I could get some solder wick to repair our heated mattress pad.
On the way home I stopped off to get a picture of this giant roadrunner erected at an Interstate rest area.
It’s about 30 feet high and very impressive. I was going to get a little closer for a better shot until Jan pointed out this sign.
Oh, never mind!
Getting home, I went ahead and disconnected and drained the water hose and filter so they won’t be affected by the cold weather.
The Weather Channel is no longer talking about snow tonight, so that’s something, I guess.
I did my repair to the heated mattress pad. We’ll see how it works.
We plan on heading out about 10am tomorrow to Tucson for a couple days to visit some friends, so more then.
