Las Cruces, NM to Van Horn, TX


Oct 7th

Leaving Las Cruces NM for Van Horn TX
Left Las Cruces about 9:30 this morning. 

Leaving El Paso - the city that never ends...
Other than steady crosswinds , the drive was nice once we got through El Paso. 

The rocks above our rest stop
We stopped once for fuel and once to walk the dogs. Because we crossed into Central Time we actually arrived at 2:45 PM. So we had a late lunch/early dinner and settled in for the rest of the day.

On the pad at the Van Horn KOA
In planning our drive for tomorrow, I called the RV Park in Odessa and found out they were full – there’s an Air Show in Midland this weekend. After consulting our Trailer Life Campground Guide and the internet we finally found a place to stay in Big Springs, TX. It added another 57 miles to the day but we really wanted to do some exploring in the area.

Miles driven today, 168. Total for the trip so far, 2,324 miles.
