Yesterday we left Santa Fe and headed south in the Turquoise Trail, route 14. Last night was in a rustic (run down) log cabin at the "Ponderosa Cabins" in Ruidoso, NM, which is the town that serves the adjacent ski area. The weather here this morning is pristine, which the morning paper suggests is not the case in Texas and Oklahoma, which we cannot avoid crossing. The storm is said to have a week more fury to vent, so we are going to have to deal with it. Fortunately, we shouldn't have to worry about tornados as we are NOT pulling a trailer.
Today we head down to the Carlsbad Caverns, one of the icon tourist spots of my youth.
