Pelancong Would that the Rio Grande water could be allowed to come down here to Las Cruces. Water ownership and management are major deal in New Mexico and across the southwest.
Pelancong I read today more than 1/2 of El Paso water comes from Rio Grande Elephant Butte Lake

Pelancong While there are so many poor and in need people on and off reservations, I understand NM state government spending funds to help. Yet there’s so much revenue from oil and gas industry and state income taxes, it makes you wonder where it all goes . Clearly not toward BLM,SP, CCC maintenance. Hope you enjoyed the hot springs.
Pelancong You’re right about poorly maintained open lands. So sad, the state is rich in history but so many of the native people are really poor
