Our purpose was to purchase senior cards -- a great deal by the National Parks Association. If you are 62 years old or over, you can buy a lifetime National Parks card for $10 that gets you into any national park in the United States for free for the rest of your life.
While we were at Pecos, we walked the trail around the pueblo ruins. There are a lot of ruins remaining there, as well as the remains of the large adobe mission church, built in the 1600s. The setting at the Pecos Pueblo contains stunning scenery in every direction.
Here are several pictures of the Visitor Center at the Pecos National Historic Park; it's a wonderful place with a museum, small theater and gift shop.
More picture of Pecos to follow. Stay tuned!

$10 is the best deal for the National Parks! I am quite jealous since we have to spend $80 a year for a pass. About 5 years ago I bought a "Passport" book. It is a little book where you can put stamps you get when you visit each national park. It is a fun way to track travels - and see the national parks!
WOw! What a great deal! Would be a great idea for my inlaws and my parents.
Val -- oh, I like the idea of a passport book. Maybe we will get one to document our visits.
Jenny -- Yes, the senior passes would be a great gift idea for parents and inlaws. (They need to be at a park in person to show ID in order to get the passes.)
