| Our next camping trip took us to Pendaries RV Park , northwest of Las Vegas, NM. This is an area of New Mexico in which neither Jim nor I have spent much time. I was excited to get three more photos for the contest in the area, and also to check out another RV park on our year of evaluating our Rving travels. The RV park was crowded, and once again seals the deal that RV parks are not our first choice. However, as RV parks go, this one was more like a campground than any I have experienced to date. No pavement and lots of trees, but there were still to many people, and too much stuff/things with these people. Oh yea and lots and lots of dogs. The first adventure in our new jeep to the first photo was exactly that, an adventure. The directions provided by GOOGLE (which always maps the shortest route not the best), took us up a narrow one width wide road, where we encountered several cars returning from the destination which is the Armand Hammer United World Collage. We were so glad to be traversing this road in our Jeep, but also longed for our GURTIE as this was the ideal situation for her. I could not belive this would be the main road to a Collage, and after we took the photo Jim spied a major road just beyond where we were parked. Sure enough, a much easier road into this location was there all along. This building was originally called Montezuma’ s Castle. We encountered another photo taker at this location, and that always makes me smile. |
