We stopped for lunch in Santa Rosa, New Mexico, and while we waited for our (not very good) food, read through a tourist guide. That's when we learned about a tiny town south of Santa Rosa on the Pecos River. Usual story: the railroad went to Santa Rosa instead, and the place called Puerto de Luna got smaller and smaller.
The guide promised a scenic drive along the river. We had nothing but time, and so took the side trip to PDL, as it's known locally.
