In late October I attended for the first time the Roswell Jazz Festival in Roswell, NM. I tied it in with my plans to attend the Arizona Classic Jazz Festival a week later. I added visits to four national parks in Texas and New Mexico around the two festivals, in keeping with my desire to have more than one reason for flying most or all the way across the country.
Until I happened to check Roswell’s website a week before the event (and the day before I left home) I did not know that there were free music sets in a city park in the afternoons. I had signed up for an all-events ticket but received no information about the “extras” before leaving.
