Fort Selden 50-th Anniversay Celebration Part 1

 


Dad invited myself and his friend, Gerald, out to the Fort Selden site 50-th anniversary celebration Saturday night.  Admittedly, I had nothing better to do, so I was okay with going.  There was also supposed to be some free food. 


The historic site is just outside of Las Cruces, New Mexico, just off I-25.  The parking lot was full when we got there.  


This is a view of the nearby Robledo Mountains.


We passed this car in the parking lot.  It's a green Jaguar.  We think it probably belonged to a state senator who was in attendance.  


This was a little bench area outside of the museum.




This event and the site are maintained by the Dona Ana County Historical Society.  You can see some of the ruins of the fort walls on the brochure.  

More pictures in Part 2.
