Rest Stop Roadrunner This giant roadrunner provides a little competition for Paisano Pete. Don't know if she's bigger, but is definitely in a more dramatic location, high on the west mesa overlooking the Rio Grande valley and across to the Organ Mountains. It's made of recycled materials--old sneakers, etc. Great tourist photo ops!
