Re: The Trip
What a weird town name. Of course I researched it, and it used to be named Hot Spring, until being renamed Truth or Consequences, after a radio show in the 1950s. So weird. Love it.
The change of name from Hot Spring to Truth or Consequences is credited to Ralph Edwards who hosted a radio quiz program on NBC Radio named “Truth or Consequences.” In March 1950, Ralph promised to air this show from a town that would change its name to match the name of the program.

Re: The Trip
The second leg of Thursday was to Truth Or Consequences, New Mexico for a dip in the hot spring water at a riverside spa.
After that it was off to the campground in Lordsburg for rest.

Re: The Trip
Thursday found us on the road again, this time to White Sands National Park. We did one long hike thru the beautiful dunes, and a couple short hikes to points of interest. Perry was in rare form, at one point taking a diving tumble down one of the dunes.
In the summer, this is probably a fairly murderous hike, but in January on an overcast day like it was, it was extremely nice and leisurely.

Already done. Got a green chile burger for lunch in Hatch. A+ burger. Dare I say it? I think it bested Five Guys.
