Ruidoso and general NM in May

[In the Pink Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close In the Pink]

Does anybody have any suggestions for what to do/where to go in Ruidoso or day trips from there in May? We are not hiking, climbing, etc. types.

Thanks.

Thanks. Great sites. I have ordered a visitor's guide as well, but sometimes there are things to see/do that sound grand that really aren't "all that" and sometimes things that may not sound like much are really "do not miss". I'm looking for real experiences.... someone from the area or who has been there that has any advice.

I wish I could be more helpful, but when we went to Ruidoso, it was about 10 years ago, and the area was pretty, but we went in summer and the things that we mostly did were low key, and very local. We picnicked at a high peak, we walked thru the town, shopped the local stores, and went to a movie. We aren't much into the race track, so we didn't go. Nor did we head over to the Indian gaming area. I hope you get some other folks to help you out. This is all I remember about the trip.
