We spent the night in Alamogordo, and early next morning we were back in White Sands..... My little family decided to take a hike across the dunes.... "Okay, time to have some fun!" and Bonnie took a leap off the side of the dune.... Efreet followed. "Wheeeee!" Even Owen and Leona joined in the fun.... But Peach, who considered herself too mature for such nonsense, just watched from above.... I had come up with an interesting way to take my doll photos without exposing them to too much sun. Being early in the mornings, the sun was still low in the sky, so I chose a nice big sand pile at the westerly edge of a parking lot, and Jan parked the RV right up beside it, casting a big shadow over the whole area. After the dolls were set up, he backed up the RV just long enough for me to take some quick photos, and then he pulled forward again to put everything back in shade. Changed everyone's poses and did it again. It was a lot more convenient that trying to shade the dolls with an umbrella!

Pour Peach, missing all the fun because she feels too mature. She will regret that later.

WOW!!! You definitely have a "peach" of a hubby. Mine would NEVER even consent to the road trips, to say nothing of helping with dolls!!!

That's too bad. I love the whole US Southwest, and we've been many times. Haven't been since before Trump was elected President, and then there was Covid. And now I understand there's so many people wanting to visit the National parks, that it won't be possible to just drop in like we used to.
