After spending the previous night in a muddy stop along a highway, the Red Barn RV Park felt like heaven! The owners were gracious, kind, and helpful. And they had a clean shower, a clean washer, and a dryer. And like so much of Roswell, they totally embraced the alien culture.

A toy flying saucer with a ladder stands in front of a black background decorated with stars and a moon, evoking the playful spirit of Red Barn RV Park. Two green alien figurines stand beside a tiny windmill and a white snowflake shape.
A white door with a red frame at Red Barn RV Park features a small window showing a gray alien face. Below the window, a beaded American flag hangs. The walls display framed items and shelves with small objects and a yellow artificial flower.

On one of the evenings of my wonderful stay, I was treated to a spectacular sunset.

A vibrant sunset with orange, pink, and purple clouds fills the sky above Red Barn RV Park’s rural landscape. Silhouetted trees and a white fence stand in the foreground, with an open field and horizon in the distance. A bare tree branches rightward.

Little did I know at this time, but my wandering in the southwest would provide many opportunities to enjoy breathtaking sunsets, especially as I headed into the Sonoran Desert.

Sometimes, it still feels a little surreal that I’ve actually done it. I’m now wandering the country in this adorable teardrop trailer.

A small teardrop camper is parked on gravel at Red Barn RV Park with a picnic table nearby. A bicycle is mounted on the camper’s roof, and an awning shades the door. Trees, a white fence, and open grassy areas sit under a blue sky in the background.
