Rock Hound State Park

May 11, 2007

We spent much of the day today hiking and breaking rocks at the Rockhound state park.  Alesa saw it on the travel channel and has been looking forward to it ever since.  We gathered about five pounds of rocks, some of them gem quality, but we will probably never polish them.  We had a late lunch at the Si Senor restaurant in Deming.  We both got the combination platters, Mexican food.  It was excellent .  We plan on crossing the continental divide and moving into Arizona tomorrow.
