Weeboy,
Great.. you are lucky that you were able to get into White Sands at that time ..awesome !.. Yes, Cindy and the Alfreds family are great, and while that is more '' roughing it '' than the other places, I had suggested it as you said you said you were entertaining the thought of Roots....oh dear..no ( lol )..
38 days on the beach, in a couple great places...….lucky you..
( I'm sooooorrrry Wilson !!)
