Default White Sands of NM Hookup May 15-17 2009

This is a "crossforum" hookup....

I was encouraged to post this hookup here.
Anyone interested?

We would like to put together a hookup here in New Mexico.

White Sands National Monument
http://www.nps.gov/whsa/

and

New Mexico Museum of Space History
http://www.nmspacemuseum.org/

Both attractions require a small fee but they are well worth it!

There's a Motel 6 and a Fairfield Inn both on Summit Ct. down the road

Click on the name to go to their website

****LOOKS LIKE THE FAIRFIELD INN IS THE HOTEL OF CHOICE****

My wife and I were looking at doing a little road trip during this time and would be interested in either hooking up in NM or in the Phoenix area and driving to NM with other owners. Please keep me posted as the details roll out.

Thank you

Looks like you got CF Roadsters location mixed up with mine in your list. Seems he is in California.
BTW is this a roadster only trip!?

Tightened, welcome.. This is not a roadster only hook-up. If you go to crossfirecommunity.net, go to my gallery roncosrt6, you will see about 8 of 12 cars on Oakcreek Hookup 2008 were roadsters. What better place to have a roadster than AZ.

If you decide to go, we could meet you on our way. Do you have any FMS walkie talkies? We make sure every car has one. If you don't, they are fairly inexpensive these days..

Wow, wish I could join you all! I was stationed on Holloman AFB and lived in Alamogordo. Can't get out there now though.
The Trinity site is pretty cool if you're into nuclear history. The Space museum is definitely awesome!
I thought it was pretty great country out there! Don't forget a short mountain drive to Cloudcroft and Ruidoso.
There is a great lodge in Cloudcroft called "Rebecca's", they say she hunts the place. Don't forget an afternoon of horse racing at Ruidoso Downs! If it's still there.

A real great cruise would be in the spring when they do the Balloon Fest in Albuquerque!
Enjoy and post pics!!

Stan:

So many things to do so little time!

Yes, we went to the Trinity site (open only 2x/year) it's about 2 1/2 hours from here.

White Sands is really neat, the sand is so white it looks like snow!! (in 70+ degrees)

Then the "War Bird" Museum too!

So many things so little time!!!

Too bad you cannot join us!

I hope others will take us up on this hookup!

I'm planning on heading up to Ruidoso after the hook-up. Buddy has a place up there. They will meet us on wednesday. The track opens on
Memorial Day. We will hit that also. Can't go all that way without going
to Ruidoso. Looking forward to the hook-up.

From the Fairfield Inn:

Starbuck's right on Telshor to the next signal across from Sam's Club.

Uno Grill within walking distance.

Village Inn (like Denny's) left down Telshor to Lohman (2 signals)

IHOP Right up Telshor left at North Telshor (2 signals)
