We visit the Deming Luna Mimbres Museum. This place has the largest collection of Indian pottery I have ever seen. The Mimbres lived in this area from 800-1250. They left about the same time as the Anastasi. About a hundred years later the Apache took their place.
We drive on to Rock Hound State Park where we take a campsite and then go for a hike. This park allows rock collecting and we return with several nice pieces of jasper.
