The twins had fall break so we decided to take a quick road trip to New Mexico a few days before my knee replacement surgery.
On the way there, I made us stop near Dragoon, AZ to visit The Thing, roadside attraction. It provided a great stretch break. We then had a delicious BBQ lunch in an old train dining car in Willcox, AZ.
Once we arrived in New Mexico, I got to see several roadside attractions including 3 "World's Largest...." !
We drove through Las Cruces, where I needed to stop to take a picture with the world's largest chili pepper.
The next morning, we hiked the Trestle trail.
The next day, we drove to Alamogordo and visited White Sands National Park, which contains the world's largest gypsum dunefield. We rented sauces and went sledding down the dunes.
While we were in the area, we visited the PistachioLand farm, where we tried lots of different flavors of pistachios and I was able to pose next to the world's largest pistachio.
