Elephant Butte – Monday October 6, 2014

Today we moved toward Truth or Consequences, New Mexico actually spending the night just north of Elephant Butte, NM which is just north of Truth or Consequences, if I have all of that correct. We had two goals when we left Datil; find a place to do laundry and a place with WIFI.  I found a RV park which listed a laundry and WIFI which is also part of a discount RV park system called Passport America.  By joining this group you can stay at a member park for 50% of their going rate.  This park listed as having 69 sites and the laundry/WIFI.  However, when we got there the WIFI no longer worked and the laundry was one washer and one dryer (at least they were clean).  The 69 sites had 10 people who lived there permanently and one RV from Washington State.  Later in the evening three other traveling RV’s pulled in, we all left Tuesday morning.

This campsite picture makes it look a lot better than it really was.  Oh well they all can not be Monument Valley.

Here is the InReach hike Hank and I took on Sunday.
