White Sands National Monument

The White Sands are located in the Tularosa Basin in New Mexico. There are only a few gypsum dunes fields and the White Sand Dunes is the largest at 275 Square Miles.DSC_0105

We visited the sands dunes 3 years ago, liked them so much we had to visit again.

We arrived in Benson AZ to temps in the 70s oh so warm. We will be here for at least 3 days before moving further west.

Fellow RVers and good friends of ours Steve and Sandy welcomed us as we pulled in. Spent the evening with them, and another couple. (oops forgot their names, old age.) We met Steve and Sandy last winter in Quartzsite, and had some good time together, which we hope to do again this winter.

The park we are staying at is having a big New Years Eve party tonight which we plan on attending. The club house is across the street from our spot, no driving home.

Mike and I wish everyone a happy and safe New Year. Love to you all.
