Family reunion and a chance for all of us to say goodbye to Mom, Grandma, Great Grandma. We released wish-lanterns one night, and had a fantastic fireworks show another. Mom wanted her ashes spread in the desert, so we did a final farewell one night. Star gazing and planet hunting one night. Water balloon fights during the day. And of course, getting to visit brothers, nephews, and niece with all of their children was wonderful. We always leave with someone planning the next reunion. We all loved the Painted Pony, but don't know if we will ever make it back to southern New Mexico, I put in more than 5,650 miles driving, and the shortest distance anybody had to drive was 1,700 miles round-trip.
The resort itself was everything advertised, plenty of space, nice rooms, pool, the stars at night, scorpions, coyotes, and rattlesnakes. We all loved it.
Thank you
