RUIDOSO, NEW MEXICO, BETTER LATE THAN NEVER

Well, unfortunately I posted our Albuquerque trip completely forgetting about our trip to Ruidoso, so here it is.  Ruidoso is a beautiful New Mexico town in the mountains.  We pulled  into the Circle B rv park in the early afternoon and set up on a gravel and dusty site.  I have pictures of the site and campground which overlooked the beautiful mountains.  The scenery is magnificent, natures wonders.  We have come in during bikefest weekend, but that is not a problem.  Campground is half empty.  We venture out to see the Hubbard Western Museum, a beautiful place with covered wagons, and lots of memorabilia.  I get a dirt t-shirt, actually dyed with the dirt of the mountains.  We have a steak dinner at K Bobs, great service and good food.  The next day we tour the River Museum, smaller venue with western artifacts as well as movie star pieces.  They have a small ufo alien exhibit which has the props from the tv show x files.  We take a long ride into the town of Lincoln where the courthouse is where Billy the Kid was tried.  Also a general store and we stop at a B & B to have coffee and fresh blueberry cake before our ride home.  We learned alot about the old west in Ruidoso.
