| Mayhill, New Mexico |
Mayhill, New Mexico, is almost literally a bend in the road.
On the day I stopped in Mayhill, I was on my way back to Alamogordo from Artesia. It was August, I think. Maybe September.
The distance between Artesia and Alamogordo, all on Highway 82, is 110 miles.
In that 110 miles, I passed through:
- Roswell Basin
- Pecos Slope
- Sacramento Mountains
- Chihuahua desert

Anyway, one day, after a particularly hot day in Artesia, as I approached Mayhill, I saw there was a small concert.

Right in the middle of town. Which is to say, right along the side of the road.
I parked the car, pulled out a camp chair from my trunk, and ambled across the road to the grassy lot and listened to some good country music.
Presently, I continued on my way to Alamogordo. The concert in shady-cool Mayhill was like an icy drink on a hot and sweaty day.
