    While Dripping Springs may have been dry during your visit, make no mistake that during a rainstorm the arroyos fill up quickly and cause dangerous flash floods. Several people lost their lives in a rainstorm close to Aguirre Springs, near the Missile Range in ‘78. It is said that if you ever come to New Mexico, you will return. Safe travels. Signed, almost a native Las Crucen.

    Imagine, if you will, White Sands after a 2" massive thunderstorm.
    I did this several years ago.
    The areas where you drove were inches deep in water.
    The dunes were totally refreshed and pristine.
    And as it got dark, the lightning flashing from the storms made the entire sky lightning white.
    Normally as this happens, the sky is white, and the ground is dark....but not at White Sands.
    The sky is lightning white and the ground is reflecting that white light on the white sand.
    It is a surreal "BEAM ME UP, SCOTTY" experience as you are completely surrounded and enveloped by white light!

    Y'all missed out on some of the most epic experiences and food in the Las Cruces area. Salud's looks like a decent place but the food definitely didn't look representative of Las Cruces Cuisine, let alone New Mexican Cuisine. La Posta was a good choice though. iLa Nueva Casita Cafe on Mesquite Street is a must visit. Chope's, while not in Las Cruces is one of the most epic places to eat and drink in the area, you have to sit in the bar for the real experience. El Sombrero is a great place with really good food. Aguirre Springs is a great place for hiking and picnicking.
