Blue Hole: In the city of Santa Rosa there is an environmental wonder. The Blue Hole is an 80 feet deep, bell-shaped hole in the earth. The constant temperature of 64 degrees and the great visibility make this the ideal spot for scuba diving. In fact, visitors can obtain permits to use the water and rent equipment right on site.
Raton Historical District: Raton Historical District in New Mexico is a trip in a time machine. First Street, one of Raton's main streets, is filled with Victorian style buildings dating back to the 1890's. Charming, cozy, comfortable store fronts boast antiques, boutiques, art galleries, and restaurants. Be sure to stop at Shuler Theatre and the El Raton Movie theatre, both of which have a long and interesting history, and are still in use today. When you're not shopping, take in Raton's natural environmental beauty, and take part in the outdoor activities: biking, golfing, and hunting, among others.
