Roswell New Mexico

Meanwhile in Roswell...
If you have never heard of Rosewell:
"Roswell is a city in New Mexico. It is the county seat of Chaves County in the southeastern quarter of the state of New Mexico, United States. As of the 2010 census it had a population of 48,411,making it the fifth-largest city in New Mexico.

Roswell is most popularly known for having its name attached to what is now called the 1947 Roswell UFO incident, though the crash site of the alleged UFO was some 75 miles (121 km) from Roswell and closer to Corona. The investigation and debris recovery was handled by the local Roswell Army Air Field." from WIKI read the rest here.

This was my second visit. We spent the night here and then explored the next day. I love the fact the town has embraced all the UFO craziness and has a sense of humor.

The chainsaw carved art  pieces were all over town. 
Yes, I jumped out to take a picture with this one. Yes, the alien looked cuter than me, hence no pictures will be posted. #FAIL

Where to start?

Tacos!

Just your normal, small town shops....NOT

Main street is the place to be..

From the silly to the really SILLY, Roswell  was a nice side trip on this adventure.

It was a Sunday morning and people were out taking in the sites and buying T-shirts and such.

I think this was a new one. I don;t remember seeing it last trip. But we pushed on...after lunch.

Quick stop by Burger King, for a veggie sandwich as we left.

And then we were back on the road headed to Albuquerque for more adventures.

Looks very different from most of my USA pictures, yeah?

See you at the airport~
