Spent a 2nd night at Cowtown RV Park in Ft Worth and then on to Monahans, TX on Oct 24th for a night--a place to lay our heads. On to Mesilla and Las Cruces, NM (Oct 24-28) to have Sunday brunch at the Double Eagle Inn in old Mesilla with our friends from Oregon & Arizona--a major reason for this jaunt to the Southwest.
Duncan met us shortly after we arrived on Thursday and the Kochs, Richmans, and Vigals joined us on Friday and the fun began. Saturday we went to a huge Farmer's Market & Craft Show in Las Cruces, then down to the little village of La Mesa to have lunch at Chopes which is a true locals' place. We were not disappointed.
Our other friends, Louie & Nicole Hanson, who were hoping to join us, called to let us know they had been in an accident on Friday and their truck and trailer had been totaled. By the grace of God they walked away with bumps and bruises. High winds were the major factor in the accident and it makes one shudder because we all have to contend with that occasionally and it can be scary.
The brunch was AMAZING--the food, the staff, the service and the setting--all five star. Everyone agreed it was the finest brunch they had ever attended--MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Unfortunately, John wasn't feeling well and didn't go. Drove all the way from Oregon for this and missed it!
Tomorrow on to Tucson. Life is good!
