PHOTOS, 10.26.17, LAS CRUCES, NM

I-10 into Las Cruces today, about 60 miles. At one point the wind was behind me and the shoulders were mostly good. 

 Wesley, the guy who picked me up about a week going through the Tonto Forest out of Mesa AZ--the first section of the trail that I avoided--was helpful and friendly. Today on I-10 a few miles outside of Las Cruces an SUV pulled over up ahead of me and as I rode past it I heard "Hey Mark!" It was Wesley on his way to a new job in TX! Since as far as I knew no one within a thousand miles knew me, I was quite surprised. We had a short friendly talk and headed on our way, him continuing on I-10 and me to 28 south toward El Paso.
