Hello {{First Name|Las Cruces}}
🚗 Been traveling for a family get together to the Washington Coast and always amazed at the beauty of the western USA. But I find myself missing Las Cruces 🥰 and New Mexico and ready to smell the green chiles roasting!
🪧 Elijah shared this incredible photo on Facebook of a Welcome to New Mexico sign with the milky way. View on Facebook.
🤳 Also Jenny Carver shared a beautiful photo of the Organ Mountains from Las Cruces on Facebook. Check it out here or on Facebook.
❣ Janet shared on Facebook “I was so disappointed as I couldn't find any ads for a 4th of July concert. Only in an ad in the Las Cruces Bulletin, Friday the 4th, did I find info for a concert that had already been performed that morning! I'm looking forward to your newsletter because of that! Thanks”. Thanks for subscribing Janet!
