Silver City was fine, but now we are going to Las Cruces.

This is a straight road!

Uhoh!

But first - a stop here.

Welcome!

City of rocks.

This was also great! How fascinating. Just in the middle of nowhere there are huge rock formations.

Carl found an interesting stone.

Very interesting.

If you like rocks, this is the place to go.

Mats.

More rocks.

And more.

Carl taking a break.
