Roswell, New Mexico
The last “Bizarre” small town I wish to talk about is one I’m sure you’ve heard of. But because of watching too much TV growing up, it’s been on my bucket list for quite some time.
I wanted to know if it was just one of those fake tourist attractions or if this small town had something else to offer.
So as you’ve heard, in 1947, residents of Roswell saw what looked like a UFO crashing. Our country’s military said it was a weather balloon, but many weren’t convinced.
Well, even though the stories of everything being “Alien Branded” are accurate, there’s something the movies and shows don’t mention.
We checked out the Historical Center of Southeast New Mexico. It’s a place filled with the area’s antiques, artifacts, and a gallery of interesting historical exhibits. But we also spent some time bird watching and even went fishing at the Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge.
Bottomless Lakes State Park wasn’t too shabby either. We rented a boat to explore and cooled off with a dip in the beautiful water. All in all, I’d say: go for the aliens, but stay for the views!
So, let me know what you thought about my wandering adventures in these bizarre small towns. But if the quirky towns aren’t your cup of tea, check out: My Life As A Nomadic Wanderer: 7 Incredible Things I’ve Seen
