So this week was another group date night. The Rebellos were in town, so Chris and I teamed up to surprise everyone with the date night. A last minute change of plans moved the adventure from Sunday to Saturday afternoon. We loaded everyone in the truck and headed west toward Sunland Park. The date was the El Paso Botanical Gardens. I had driven by it several times as it is near my work, but none of us were quite sure what to expect (gardens in El Paso?). Well, it turned out to be very nice. Small, but nice. Winding gravel pathways toured us through different areas of desert plants, complete with a small pond, view of wetlands (surprising), artwork, and even a greenhouse. It was very peaceful and we basically had the place to ourselves. Most everything was still in hibernation from winter, but it was very nice nonetheless. It was a quick date, only lasting about 30 minutes, but it was another new adventure to add to the books!
