Tomorrow I'm moving to City of Rocks State Park
New Mexico State Parks limit ones stay to 3 weeks at which time one must leave the park for 6 nights before returning. But I don't plan to return to Rockhound on this trip. Later in the month I'll be visiting friends in Las Vegas so it's time to start drifting westward again. So I'll spend a few days at City of Rocks State Park, a few miles north of Deming, New Mexico, and then move on.

Our Peripheral Existence
Being a minority in both caste and class, we moved about anyway on the hem of life, struggling to consolidate our weaknesses and hang on, or to creep singly up into the major folds of the garment. Our peripheral existence, however, was something we had learned to deal with, probably because it was abstract.
The Bluest Eye, Toni Morrison
