Tomorrow I'm moving to City of Rocks State Park
New Mexico State Parks limit ones stay to 3 weeks at which time one must leave the park for 6 nights before returning. But I don't plan to return to Rockhound on this trip. Later in the month I'll be visiting friends in Las Vegas so it's time to start drifting westward again. So I'll spend a few days at City of Rocks State Park, a few miles north of Deming, New Mexico, and then move on.

Walking the edge, I am. ...
... On some days breathing, eating and not folding into a ball in a corner is all I can manage. I had a few of those days in the past three weeks. It reminds me, in ways I do not like to be reminded, just how damaged I really am.
Like a character from the television show "Cheers" once said, "It's a dog eat dog world out there - and I'm wearing milkbone underwear."
