Apache Trading Post and The McCray family

My last post left you visiting underground with us at The Carlsbad Caverns National Park.  Just outside the Caverns is The Apache Trading Post. There used to be about half dozen or so trading posts along this stretch but it appears as if The Apache Canyon Trading Post is the only one still open for business. The owner's sell items from several American Indian tribes and other local residents.

Let me show you a few pictures of the outside:

Unfortunately when we arrived, it was closed. We would really have liked to see all the souvenirs...BUT...we had just as much fun hanging around outside.

While JohnE and Ashley are stuck in jail Jen decided to visit the Saloon

We really enjoyed this days. The caverns were awesome and this little stop afterwards was a lot of fun. The picture you see below was taken on our way up to the Caverns. We also saw mountain goats on the way back down...PRETTY COOL STUFF!
