MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Happy Holidays to everyone out there who are following us on our travel Blog!!! It has been a little while since I have updated our fun here in Columbus, New Mexico at a State Park we have been hosting at for the past few months. We have about two and a half months left here before we head out to our next hosting job in Nevada….

We have been having lots of fun enjoying our time working and site seeing at the museum here in the State Park. A place that you can see the sun set and rise almost every day So beautiful..
We have been working on cleaning up some trails, painting signs and now we are painting site numbers on all of the sites that have shelters. We are keeping busy, and at the same time trying to see some of the sites of New Mexico. Just a few nights ago we had filled over 200 small bags for a Luminaria light display at the park museum lighting it all up. It came out beautifully..

Jodi and I have visited one of many beautiful state parks around us. Rockhound State Park near Deming, NM. It is like night and day from where we are in Columbus, just up the road 25 miles are huge rocks and mountains. Here are some pictures we took. We are going to head up the road about 65 miles north to visit another state park called City of Rocks State Park in Silver City, NM. Will post some pictures when we get them for this place. Here are a few that I found online.

It has been great weather here. We have temperatures of 30s to 40s in the morning and 50 to 60 temps in the afternoons. No snow like some of you in the north eastern parts and some southern parts like North Carolina…. Snow, rain, and flooding… We are thinking of all of you that are dealing with all that bad weather.. We are blessed to be able to run away from all the bad weather and find good weather. We have not gotten any snow yet, but we think its coming. Just a dusting of snow that will only be around for a few hours.. As I always do, here are some of our beautiful pictures.
