White Sands National Monument

We left our RV behind on Friday for a day out to see the major attractions near Alamogordo New Mexico.  We started at the White Sands National Monument which is a gigantic sea of sparkling white gypsum about 12 miles south.  We saw a 20 minute video and took a drive to see the dunes up close.  They were similar to dunes near Lake Michigan, only these were pure white.  To us - many of the scenes looked like winter with snow.
