The Blue Hole & Pecos

Today we visited two unique sights in New Mexico, a blue hole in Santa Rosa, and the pueblo ruins in the Pecos National Historic Park.  The blue hole is located just off old Route 66 in Santa Rosa.  The aquifer is an 80 foot opening forming a stunning blue hole of crystal clear water that flows at a rate of 3000 gpm.

The two of us at the Blue Hole.

We also visited the Pecos National Historical Park, which has some peublo ruins, and also the ruins of a mission.  Here is a photo of the mission.
