Today was just a short drive from Las Cruces NM to Alamogordo NM. In doing so, we drove past White Sands National Park where we will return tomorrow. Today was a quiet day, no touring. After settling in to our campsite, we went to enjoy a coffee at Starbucks, and then went to a car wash as the truck looked terrible. In the evening, we did some laundry using the campgrounds machines.
Claudette’s Two Cents.
I think it’s important to share here that short “moving days” as I like to call them are important on a trip this length. I like to call this our “down time” from a whole lot of visiting and traveling. I’m not complaining. I’m just saying that it takes a lot of planning (Bernard mostly) and coordinating (me around meals and my work.)
Sometimes, just chilling as Starbucks, sitting at our campsite is all that is required in our day to enjoy it.
