White!




But not snow! Even though this looks like snow it is in fact white sand. These photos were taken at White Sands Monument between Las Cruces and Alamogordo. Miles and miles of white gypsum sand dunes that are constantly shifting. More on White Sands after we get home.



If we were in New Jersey today, which Bigsis is right, we are not, we would be in the midst of a rare October snowstorm. Sigh. I’m missing it! I am pretty sure our limo driver will have to let us out at the top of our driveway and we’ll have to slog through at least a foot of snow tomorrow! So far today at 5:00 eastern time we’ve had five inches according to neighbor Kim who so nicely went over and put figgy inside our garage.

I think I’ve finally eaten my fill of mexican fare so it’s time to go home. We’ve had a great time and I’ve been given the royal family treatment.

Tomorrow we get up bright and early to catch our flight to Houston. Fingers crossed our flight won’t be delayed because of backups at the Newark airport due to the storm. We’ll catch up on the flip side back in New Jersey with more photos from New Mexico!

And probably more photos of white stuff. Snow in October!

About

Welcome, I'm Lynne. You know me better as a 'new' Jersey Girl. But now I've moved once again, this time to North Carolina. Here I write about my thoughts, good food, and of course, dogs.
