JUNE 7, 2013  ALAMORGORDO, NEW MEXICO

We decided to take the coach to Alamorgordo and set up there for a few days.  The town of 35,000 is nestled right up against the Sacramento Mountains which gave us a nice view from the RV Park.

 


It was only a little over fifty miles to the RV park which gave us a enough time to set up, have some lunch and head for the New Mexico Museum of Space History. 
 

I was familiar with a lot of it as it has happened in our lifetime but it was still nice to see.  A lot of the exhibits that were inside were hard to take pictures of as the lighting was not good.  You know I still tried to take some.


 

 
They had a replica of a flight simulator that was supposedly exactly as the real thing.  We were allowed to try and land it using the flight controls.  I died.
 
 
They had a number of exhibits outside that were pretty interesting.  


 





The tour ended our day so it was back to the RV Park for some supper and relaxation.  Another good day on the road.
