We live North of Las Cruces, New Mexico on one acre with lots of fruit and nut trees, grass, shrubs, roses, and flowers. To keep busy we travel in our motorhome, square dance, do genealogy, photography, read, and sing and play guitar at nursing homes. We design and maintain web sites and do other computer related activities. We currently belong to two square dance groups, The Doņa Ana County Camera Club, the Doņa Ana County Historical Society, the Las Cruces Computer Users group, and the Three Crosses RV Group.
