I think they said that certain counties might reopen sooner than others based on the local numbers dropping for a sustained period. That probably would be the smaller ones away from the cities. But the numbers are bad and not getting significantly better and the hospital capacity is pretty grim. I don't expect things to loosen up until next year.
IMO this lockdown will last for months until the vaccine comes out. After Thanksgiving the numbers will go off the chart.
This recent lockdown that just started last week? The week before last, the governor locked things down more for last week and this week through this weekend. As of now, things are scheduled to open back to what it was earlier next Monday.
FWIW, I read 42% of the people that traveled for Thanksgiving last year are traveling this year. That's a large decline but it is still a large, if not huge amount of people still traveling this week.

I hope you're right but why would they go back to what it was when the cases are so high?

To prevent the economy from sinking and many people don't want these tight restrictions. I read a claim alcohol, drug, and domestic abuse has gone up but haven't looked into that, so I don't know how true it is.
We'll go to a county-by-county risk rating on Dec. 2. Counties where the virus continues out of control will remain in lockdown. We are all holding our breath fo the post-Thanksgiving surge, then the post-Christmas surge, then the post-Super Bowl surge, etc.
So in reality how does it work in New Mexico? 50 million people flew over Thanksgiving weekend I assume many to and from New Mexico. If New Mexico is enforcing a 14 day quarantine for those coming in from out of state what happens to people visiting the state for a few days?

"Enforcing" isn't necessarily accurate. My wife and I came in August to move here permanently. We restricted ourselves quite a bit. Not a total quarantine. We knew about the 14 days. But nobody tried to enforce it, and I'm not sure how they would've known they might need to.
The closest I saw was on one trip to Holloman. We still had MO plates at the time (MO has a front plate, NM doesn't). But all they did was ask if what their sign said applied to us. For that matter I went after making my truck legal in the state and got pretty much the same question, so I don't know for sure that the front plate triggered it.
Now, it may be location. At Alamogordo things are a little more right-leaning (I see it as freedom-based). But ABQ, Santa Fe, Las Cruces and others may be more proactive in enforcement. I can't say.
