Mesilla/ Las Cruses #14

Mesilla/ Las Cruces 





After our exploration, we got back on the road and headed towards Las Cruces! When we got there, it was late and super cold, we had planned to stay at a Loves Truck stop, but decided that we'd be better off if we connected to power. We don't want the pipes to freeze! So we found a campground right in Las Cruses and spent the night there. When we woke up, my mom found us a little breakfast place in Mesilla- the old part of Las Cruces.




Once we arrived in Mesilla, and parked, we walked around the corner to a really cute little restaurant. As we were enjoying our food, which was incredible, the dude who owned the place asked if he could sit down to tell us a little about the building we were sitting in, and Mesilla's, history. 

Of course we wanted him to sit, and what he told us was way better information then we were getting from the Wikipedia page.  My mom got some cute shoes at his shop and he even gave Annalee and I popsicles after a tour of his shop! The pineapple one was really yummy! We took this picture right outside with the shop in the background!

The trails were super flowy and fun.  We ended up at a big castle at the top of that section.  While we were riding, we would stop and see lots of sculptures and other kinds of art. Some were even made out of old bike parts! We enjoyed the hot tub that night, and some nice, homecooked food.  The next day, we rode at Coler Bike Park, we started off by climbing to the trail junction called, "the hub". At the top, there was mostly black diamond trails, but we found our way down a blue trail called Fire Line. Dad and I rode in the front and were having...
