Our hotel in Clayton, NM.  Built in 1898 it was, and still is, quite nice.  I took pictures of the bullet holes in the saloon that were made about a week ago...not really, sometime in the late 1890's.   The outlaw "Black Jack" Ketchum was hanged in Clayton in 1900.  He was the guy that was decapitated when he was hanged, due to improper placement of the rope (so the story goes).
