Falls on Rio Penasco

This evening, we walked down to the edge of the Rio Penasco River. By the time we were within 100 feet of the river, I could hear the rushing water. There were several waterfalls within the boundaries of the RV park. The river is no more than a creek, by most standards, but here in arid New Mexico, it's considered much more than that. The road which leads down the mountain toward Artesia follows the river, for the most part. I have enclosed some movies because I'm a sucker for waterfalls and the sounds they make!
We went up to the next campground to visit our friends, and I took the banjo. We had a great time playing, my friend plays guitar and another friend of his plays mandolin, beautifully, I might add. We had fun playing and singing, although I am still all thumbs. They were very patient, though.
