This is my first web programming project for my ICT280 Web Programming class. For this project I would like to give some information about my home town: Las Cruces, NM.

Las Cruces, NM is the second largest city in New Mexico, nested in the Mesilla Valley just south of the Organ Mountains and west of the Texas border. This bright and sunny desert city is a hub for agriculture and outdoor activities. It is famous for its green chile, pecans, and hispanic culture.

Whether you like hiking through the various mountain trails, sight-seeing at the historic Old Mesilla, or shopping at the weekly Farmers market, Las Cruces has plenty of charm to offer anyone who visits!
