Fri, Feb 17 on the way to Las Cruses, Clara did some research on her new IPAD and found a nice campground for the night, Hacienda RV Resort. What made it even better was their free margarita happy hour this evening for all the campers in the park.
Sat, Feb 18 we were off bright and early for a downtown market and craft show, which apparently is a weekly (or maybe twice weekly event). There were probably a 100 vendors of every variety selling everything from farm fresh vegatables to works of art. Then we were off to the largest pecan farm in the US, Stahmann's. They have 128,000 pecan trees and have been in operation for 80 years.

This afternoon we went to Old Mesilla, a Mexican settlement that was established in 1850. It is now a shopping and restaurant area, but maintains much of the flavor of an old Mexican village.
