Tuesday we moved from Mountain Meadows RV Park in Tularosa, New Mexico to Hidden Valley Ranch in Deming, New Mexico (full hookups and all the salad dressing you can eat!). Actually, this is a working cattle ranch with hundreds of head of cattle - most of which are out on the range - we saw quite a few on the drive in.

There is a petroglyph site just a few hundred yards from the campground - 100's of petroglyphs about 800-1000 years old.

Lots of wildlife - Jack Rabbit (below), Coyotes, Road Runners, etc. - I've been trying to get a picture of a road runner for a couple of weeks with no success - they are really almost as fast as in the cartoons
Lots of types of cactus
The Cane Cholla cactus are starting to bloom
