    Your title had me stumped. What are you doing in New Mexico? The Owl Cafe and Bar was established in 1945 in San Antonio, NM. It drew "prospectors' too. The kind that was interested in the Trinity site and The Manhattan Project. It was also Conrad Hilton's first Rooming House. They became famous with The Owl Burger and a recipe used since 1948. It was the best Green Chile cheeseburger around. The bar and cafe closed in early 2024 when the original owner died.

      We were on our way back from a top secret gold mine. I hope we get to work this particular gold mine. Absolutely amazing! I'm not permitted to say more than that at this time.
