Aliens Crash Land in New Mexico
Day 7 of our 2018 Jumbo Road Trip.
Monahans, TX. to Albuquerque, NM. Finally made up for our slight of Roswell, NM back in 2009 by making it through here on this trip. If it wasn’t for this very interesting “Welcome To” diorama south of town, the several little green men statues in random spots and the International UFO Museum & Research Center (we did go in) this could be any other town of 50,000 people in a desert setting. I’m not sure exactly what I was expecting, but this wan’t it.
This was our longest mileage day, so there was not a lot of time for geocaching. We looked for just 2, the one that was near the above picture on the south side of Roswell and one on the north side that was near the road that branches off US285 leading to the 1947 UFO crash site.
