It's only 1 AM here!!
yeah, I think I'm gonna start asking that question everywhere I go!
Have you never been to Silver City, or am I just not paying attention?
Anomoly....i beleive you live in Tor C correct??
I'd drop down to Caballo and hit NM 152 at Kingston and Hillsboro and go across the Black Range to Silver City and talk with some of the people out there as to what they know of the lifestyle there as well as the after hours scene there as they'd know best.
Thats a really great drive as you'll see many campgrounds and mountain streams along the way to Silver and of course there is the ''Kneeling Nun'' rock by the Copper Pits. It sure does look like a nun from the distance.......

Thanks, 6/3.
And, let's just get this clear: I'm 'staying' in TrC... don't want ppl to think I'm from here!
And, yeah, I've been all over those roads, and through most of NM, since I've been a traveling gypsy in my RV for ...almost 3 years now-wow!
I have an annual NM State Park Camping permit, so I've been to ..wow again, probably been to most of them! as well as Forest Service, etc.
I've definitely grown a fondness for the state, i should say "I've become Enchanted"!
The last time I was in Silver was.... last year? cant remember, but now i'm trying to envision living there.. like i said, i can always leave!
When I'm on the move (as opposed to now, TrC since Oct.),
sometimes I'm a week here or there, and I can have things packed up (including sattelite dish), have the car hooked up, and the kitties loaded in
under an hour.
Now, I feel like my tires have grown into the ground here, and it's time to move on...
Thanks
At 9pm? Ha, I dont know. Walmart is open. No, really. There is some night life. Some bars. Places where people go to socialize, with wine, come and go. Not sure which have succeeded to be open presently. People go to Pinos Altos where there is a century old or more bar/resteraunt with music. Other places like that that do come and go. Alot of college/cultural events. But dont know when they end. Some concert events...mostly college. Alot of people get together and socialize. People are out. They do things together. So the town does not seem too quiet. Some people do things out in the desert together at night. Drumming circles, sweat lodges. Resteraunts here are small, dont know if they are open at 9pm. One thing interesting is that people..locals...cruise here at night along the main drag downtown. Back and forth, back and forth, all of about 6 blocks. I think its kind of cute.

that's what I'm talkin about! Nothing specific, just an all around sense that the town isn't in lockdown. LOL
And, night time is when I prefer to go to places like Walmart, so that is important to me.
Thanks!
Still out there 9pm guys? At that time of night on the weekends downtown this is what is open: The Buff -Buffalo Bar- biker, hispano, working guys bar, Twisted Vine wine bar ($6 for a small wine but no cover and good music), Grinder Mill (mexican fast food eat in/out), Shevek and Mi restaurant, and Sonic. That's about it.... oh, and Javalina THE coffee shop in town. By THE I mean the one everyone hangs at not the only one.
There's also the Silver City Brewing Co (beer/food) but it's for sale and may not be open much longer but it does well and also has live music weekends. All of these are on Bullard St. or just off it. It is a small town!
If I think of more I'll repost.
Lots of kids cruising downtown in cars, for hours, the rest of town at that time, not much going on. Super Wally World is open 24/7.
There is nothing more dangerous than loaded kitties. Be sure not to point them at anyone; they might go off.
Well, you said "make me laugh" in your tagline. If it didn't work, I apologize. I hereby apologize to everyone.
I love it! That one went right over my head at first ...
Once I finally got it, I laughed hysterically, especially the fact that I can get'm loaded "in under an hour"!
Thanks for making me laugh!
We are headed west from the "Blue Tarp" state of Florida. We are going to be stopping in the area of Silver City. We have read about it but would like some insider info.
TIA
Hello, I am new to this forum. I read your post (from 2007) regarding your plans to leave the Sunshine State for the Land of Enchantment! Curious...Did you make the move to Silver City? I am considering a similar move. Thank you! TiaMia

TiaMia i used to live in Florida. While i can't speak for Silver Cityas i'ved never lived there i do the difference between Florida and Silver city as i would say Silver is a small version of Lake City or Ocala but with mountains all around it. Definately not the tropical areas of Florida if that gives you an thought comparing both areas. Think more of the Panhandle areas.
