We really enjoyed our trip to Ruidoso and many thanks to Tom and Darlene for making it enjoyable.  It was a super great park and could not ask for any better weather.  Good to meet with our old friends and make new ones.

Three of us (Mike & Karen, Robert & Carol Ann and Mary and I) decided to go from Ruidoso to Creede, CO. for 7 to 10 days and stay at the Mountain Views at Rivers Edge RV park.  This is great park with large spaces and would make a great place for a Newell Gurus rally.  Tom please look into it.  There is a lot to do as I am sure many of you already know.  The weather was 25 to 32 in the mornings and 60s to the low 70s during the day and had no rain.  While there we drove our jeeps over Engineer and Cinnamon Pass.  Wish Forest, Ron and Marc could have been with us.  

We made it back to Nacogdoches safely where it is 95-98 degrees.  We are looking forward to next year.  Safe travels everyone.
