Evening in the White Sands

We passed a border patrol check point on the way to the sand dunes. I showed them Matthew's teeth and off we went. The backcountry campsite was not far from the trailhead and I had time to walk around a bit and take a few pictures before the sunset. When the night fell, we spread a sleeping bag on top of a sand dune above our tent and watched the stars for hours. It seemed that only the aliens could see us.
