Road Trip in December - New Mexico

I was only in New Mexico for one rest stop on my recent road trip....entering from El Paso, TX and continuing on to Tucson, AZ on Interstate 10. The pictures from that one rest stop still captured quite a lot about that part of the state: the warning about rattlesnakes (upper left), mountains in the distance...lots of rock (upper right), the fluttering flags (lower left) and the adobe/pueblo motif picnic shelters (lower right).

It was too cold to stop for long the day I went through. Everyone was walking briskly and continuing along their way.
