Hubby is great at finding side trips that he knows Kiddo and I would enjoy. On our return home, we spent one night in Socorro, New Mexico. It’s a tiny little community of less than 10,000 people in the Rio Grande Valley. Yet this tiny place is filled with interesting history.

Here it is day 14 of our insane road trip. It was over 2,500 miles just to reach our destination – Tennessee. Hubby estimated that we put on another 1,000 miles or so exploring Tennessee. Wanting to avoid retracing our journey out, the return trip took us 500 miles deeper into the south.
