Dropping in to see what's around

I'm on vacation and currently in the Las Cruces area, Picacho Hills to be specific and wondered if there was anything I should see as far as unique stores and whatnot. I see the closest aquarium is in Albuquerque, probably a little further than I'd rather drive. I'm here to be lazy after all!

I did a quick Google and didn't see much but I don't always trust that since it seems places tend to come and go, at least in the Midwest it does.

Thanks in advance and happy reefing!

No, not really, it's just nice to see something new. Figured if I was running around in town and there was a place why not check it out.

Las Cruces is nice, surprised there isn't more of a reef scene here given the size of the area. I've been here once before, last year when friends of mine got married. My wife liked it enough she wanted to spend some decent time here rather than the 3 days last fall. It's definitely warm but much more comfortable than Indy. It's miserable there when it's 90.

Wowkingjames: got the pm, thanks for the suggestions.
