The Hurd's Festivus Meander '11
See All Lists
1. Whataburger Restaurant
I love Whataburger but the nearest ones to the rock I live under are in Arizona, so I was prepared with the locations of four different ones before we left on our big Festivus meander. Turns out we ended up here in Casa Grande.
There's not much more…More »
2. Hampton Inn
So we're booked at Hampton Inn in Las Cruces, NM, but there's an inch of snow on the ground so the entire state of New Mexico closes. THE WHOLE FUCKING STATE! (New Mexico = 1 star = geez, get a snow plow.)
Alrighty then, so we get on the horn to see…More »
3. Marco's Pizza
Stranded and stressed and zonked and hungry, but not keen on going out. So our hotel recommended this place for delivery. Excellent tip. We had a very nice pepperoni and meatball pizza and split up a big salad. Just what we needed. And the…More »
4. Taqueria Jalisco
As yummy as before. It was great to visit again.

Usually Mexican food in Kerrville meant Mamacitas to our family, but lately my folks haven't been… Read more »
5. Rio Rancho Cafe
So thanks to the state of New Mexico fucking up our driving plans, our second day driving out here turned into a 14 hour hell drive. And those last 4 I was half driving/half dreaming about chicken fried steak. Usually a trip out here means BBQ but…More »
6. Heritage Inn Bed & Breakfast
Tripadvisor came through on this one. We were going to the caverns and the overriding message on tripadvisor was to skip Carlsbad with its average hotels at high prices. So I looked up the road to the next town and found this place instead. For…More »
7. La Fonda Restaurant
This is right across the street from the hotel we were staying in. I was expecting a little more in ambiance and the food, but it was good enough for 4 stars. I had a huge plate with all kinds of stuff but I really loved the chile relleno. Our…More »
8. Carlsbad Caverns National Park
I've always wanted to come here, but never got a chance to until now. It was great taking the Pookster. She loved hiking the caves at Pinnacles National Monument a few years back. She got a little impatient going through the Big Room, but the…More »
9. Piccolino Restaurant
Piccolino in a minute, but first let me share a sad tale.
So we drive to Texas and we'll be there a week, so I figure it won't be hard to shove some BBQ down my gullet at some point. But on the way there it's X-mas eve so Rix Pit in Fort Stockton and…More »
10. Mary's & Tito's Cafe
Okay, you got a hot little ass...I'm gonna do you a favor:
Regardless of where you live go to Mary's & Tito's. Order a plateful of adovada with red chile and some sopapillas. On the side get some more adovada, with a big glass full of adovada to…More »
11. Rodgers Electronics
The gal here was super nice and helpful. We called ahead and she gave us directions from the freeway, had our junk waiting for us when we got there, and gave us directions for getting back on our way. I doubt the fellows at our local Radio Shack…More »
12. Sonic Drive In
I've never been a particular fan of Sonic food-wise, but it's fun to occasionally do the drive-up thing. The only reason I'm bothering reviewing here is that the fellah who served us was exceptionally nice and attentive. And the cherry swirly thing…More »
13. La Posada Hotel
This place has some serious annoyances. It's about a mile from your car to your room, a significant portion of which is over cobblestones - good luck with the luggage cart. The halls are jam packed with shit - "art", displays, alcoves stuffed with…More »
14. Church's Fried Chicken
I enjoy Church's chicken but I don't get to go there a lot, so it was a stroke of luck that there was one across the street from our hotel, and it was still open, and the hotel restaurant cost a fortune incurring the ire of my wife.
But for some…More »
15. Cracker Barrel Restaurant
Service was great, ambiance was as charming as any of them, but my pancakes were crunchy. Yep, crunchy. Nope, not whole grain or nut or anything, just sinfully overcooked (burnt blueberries should usually tip off a cook to start over.) It's pretty…More »
16. Grand Canyon National Park
I've been here a number of times, and it's always impressive. Unless you're my daughter - she thought it would be bigger. Child, there ain't no way NO WAY that you could come from my loins!
South Rim sucks, unless you happen to enjoy second hand…More »
17. Los Altenos
Thank you Yelp for another great tip! On this trip we were trying to eat cheap and good and after driving 10,000 miles all day this place fit the bill. The adovada was a totally different style than what I had in NM, but tasted great all the same.…More »
