TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, NM | Relaxing in Hot Springs
We slipped into the hot springs at Riverbend Hot Springs and a feeling of zen slipped over us. The serene music playing, the mountains in the distance, and the feeling of the naturally hot water on a cold winter day combined together for a feeling a pure bliss. Our time in New Mexico was short, but this was one of our favorite stops in the entire trip!
Truth or Consequences is best known for two things. The first is the naturally occurring hot springs, the other is the name. Originally known simply as Hot Springs, the name changed in 1950 to honor the famous NBC radio show of the same name.
There is more to Truth or Consequences than just the hot springs. While small, it's one of New Mexico's most charming towns. The downtown area has restaurants, shops, and a fantastic brewery. Everyone we met and talked to was very friendly and welcoming, which only made our visit even more enjoyable.
Truth or Consequences is the most popular in the colder months, as the demand for hot springs goes down as the weather gets warmer. Located about halfway between Albuquerque, NM and El Paso, TX, it's a popular getaway for those looking to get out of the city and into a more rural part of the state.

Check out all the places seen in this video:
It’s no wonder that New Mexico is called the Land of Enchantment. Whether exploring ancient ruins, shopping for silver or just enjoying the ever-changing colors of the sky at sunset, New Mexico casts its charm on every visitor. With varied landscapes that range from red rock mesas to snow-capped mountains, New Mexico encapsulates all of the geological features that attract visitors to the American Southwest. No other state, however, has such a unique palette of light-infused colors, which is why so many artists call New Mexico home. Here’s a look at the best places to visit in New Mexico:

The 10 SAFEST CITIES In NEW MEXICO For 2019
SUBSCRIBE to get REGIONAL INFORMATION about where YOU live:
Full Article Here:
The purpose of this video is to determine where the safest cities to live are in New Mexico. Those places where crime is usually something you hear about on Facebook, but not from your local paper.
We analyzed cities in New Mexico with a population of more than 5,000 using the latest FBI crime data.
Here are the 10 Safest CITIES in NEW MEXICO for 2019:
1. Los Alamos
2. Corrales
3. Anthony
4. Rio Rancho
5. Truth or Consequences
6. Grants
7. Ruidoso
8. Raton
9. Portales
10. Alamogordo
Our goal is to combine recent data, fun videos, and thoughts about local culture into bite-sized snacks of shareable information. We call it bite-sized regional infotainment. We try to paint a picture of what’s happening in a region based on “Friday Night Science” — how’d you argue at a bar. To do that, we gather data from around the web to help determine a wide array of factors about where you live, things like safety, desirability, and culture.

Ep. 333: New Mexico Beach Boondocking | RV travel camping kayaking history Elephant Butte
Elephant Butte Reservoir, 40 miles long with more than 200 miles of shoreline, is popular for boating, fishing, camping and other waterside and waterborne recreation. Much of the land surrounding the lake comprises Elephant Butte Lake State Park, the largest in New Mexico, where you can boondock, or dispersed camp in your RV, tent or boat in many areas, including on some of the long, sandy beaches along the shoreline. We love beach boondocking, so that's exactly what we've done at an elevation of 4,527 feet while visiting the area to soak in the hot springs of Truth or Consequences, do some kayaking right from camp, explore the history of the Jornada del Muerto at Fort Craig Historic Site, and grab a killer chile cheeseburger in the chile pepper capital of the world of Hatch.
