Day 8
Today we went to visit the Carlsbad Caverns. I've seen them before but Howard never has. They are a spectacular place to see. The Big Room is 700 feet under ground and the are deeper caverns are down 1,000 feet. Over eons the caverns were eaten out of the stone by acids and then they are filled with calcium deposits in the form of gigantic stalactites and stalagmites. Really amazing. Tonight we are camped in a park in Carlsbad, NM. Tomorrow, on to Texas.

I'm glad you decided to stop and see the one and only thing worth seeing in that neck of the woods.
