Out and About in Ruidoso Downs and Ruidoso

Sunday, 19 July 2015
Deer Crossing RV Park — San Patricio, New Mexico
Temps: Hi 90F (32C) / Lo 67F (17C)

After taking care of a few things at home, we set off this morning to pick the brains of the people who man the visitor center Mui spotted when he drove into Ruidoso a few days ago.

We didn’t make much headway before we made our first stop.

Spotting a cute little church right after we passed the sign for Glencoe, another small community along Hwy 70, we flipped a u-ey so I could take a quick shot of St Anne’s Chapel.  Dating back to the 1930’s, it is the founding Episcopal church in Lincoln County.

Services were just ending, and one of the congregants said I was welcome to enter the church and take photographs.  There were still too many people inside, so I thanked him and said I’d stop by another time.  As the only church in the area open 24 hours a day, I should be able to find a more suitable time to take pictures of the interior sometime before we leave.
