This weekend we went on a short mini vacation up to the mountains here in New Mexico.
Cloudcroft is a small village in the Sacramento Mountains, and very much a small village.
On our way up there we stopped by the Valley of Fire to do some geocaching. This is a beautiful and maintained park. Pet, kid, and easy walk friendly! The trail around is paved and walking alittle off the trail is encouraged.
We were able to find a great cabin (vacation rental by owner) that was alittle off a main road with a stunning view. We mostly went to relax and get away so out of the way was best. While there we did some near by geocaches and hit up a tourist store, Old Apple Barn. Got some fudge and a pie and kept going!
A big stop for us was the New Mexico Museum of Space History. This was a great stop for education and of course Mr. C. There was so much I didn't know that happened here in New Mexico! If you driving through Alamogordo this is a good stop.
Does your family take mini vacations?
