Elephant Butte State Park

   Now that I am marking things off of our bucket list, I need to get back to a few things we did but have not written about. We traveled into New Mexico for the second time about a month ago. We went to Elephant Butte State Park as well as Truth or Consequences. While traveling we also went through the town of Hatch which made for some great photos of giant men.... lol.



 
 
            We stayed the night in TorC, as some call it, and the next morning we went fishing below the dam. After a bit of fishing we traveled up to the park to check it out. The lake had dropped several feet due to the fact that it is a major source of water for those in the area and downstream. At the time we were there they were letting out a lot of water.
           The parks were nice and the town even had hot springs of their own. I decided that this was one place I would bring Stephen's parents to. There were tons of shops to keep Virginia occupied while the guys fish and then we can soak in the hot springs. We are planning the trip for next month some time.
