Plenty of Nothing
... narrow, dirt streets that started out as one room homes and grew as the family grew. All of the homes are adobe, red mud, and were built with large basements, built for hiding.

People were extremely friendly and polite and eager ...

First stop today was Roswell - if people are into ...
Antarctica in New Mexico?
