Spring Training 2022 - Day 79

 After sleeping in and having a late breakfast, we did some shopping.  Our first stop was the local chili pepper store.  It isa funky store mostly outside and open to the air.  You can buy chili peppers by the bushel as well as an eclectic collection of just about everything Mexican and chili pepper related.

After restocking our chili supplies, we stopped by Walmart to get a few things for the rest of the return trip.

Following more rest in the RV, we went out to dinner at La Posta for another great Mexican dinner with Chili Margarita, a delicious variation of a traditional Mexican cocktail.

Back on the road tomorrow.

Florida Spring Training 2018 - Day 8

We slept in today.  After breakfast, we decided we should probably do laundry so we did.  This took us into the early afternoon and then it was time to rest a bit.

Later in the afternoon we went to the local Walmart to pick up a few things then on to a great Mexican restaurant, La Posta de Mesilla, just down the road in Old Mesilla, the original town in the area and stagecoach stop on the Butterfield Trail from St. Louis/Memphis to San Francisco.  When the railroad came through, Mesilla was bypassed, Las Cruces grew and became the major transportation hub in the area.

Old Mesilla is now a tourist area and a gathering place for many locals around the church and town plaza.  There are lots of shoppes and restaurants around the plaza and the adjoining parts of the town.  We have been there before and enjoyed a great Mexican dinner at La Posta de Mesilla.

It was another excellent dinner and the Margaritas were outstanding.  It is off to Midland , TX tomorrow, another overnight stop on our trip east.
