Billy the Kid Jail The Billy the Kid Jail is famous not because the legendary outlaw was incarcerated there but because it is the only jail that Billy the Kid broke into instead of out of.

Billy then helped himself to the guard's guns, got his friend Melquiades Segura out of the jail, and left the guard behind in the locked cell.

El Paso, Texas, is surrounded by natural beauty: from the Rio Grande River to one of the largest state parks in the country, there are plenty of opportunities to get outside and recreate. When you're ready to hit the trails in El Paso, use this handy guide of our favorite places to go hiking. Franklin Mountains State Park Franklin Mountains State Park is home to one of the largest state parks in Texas. The park covers over 24,247 acres and sits at an elevation of 5,426 feet with the top elevation reaching 7,192 feet. There are loads of hiking and biking trails within this massive state park - here are two of our favorites: Aztec Cave Trail This exciting trail eventually leads to three small caves on the western flanks of the Franklin Mountains. The trail isn't very long, just under one mile, but the views are phenomenal. The hike is pretty straight-forward with a steep incline, but once you reach the caves - once inhabited by Indigenous people - you can rest in the shade the caves provide. Access to the Aztec Cave Trail branches off from the Tom Mays Trail. North Franklin Peak For sweeping views of El Paso and the surrounding desert, take the trail to the top of North Franklin Peak. While not a very long trail, about 2.5 miles long, the trail is steep and rated as difficult. The trail starts from the popular Mundy's Gap trail and as you climb further, the trail becomes steeper, rockier, and more challenging. Once you reach the top, you can see for hundreds of miles across Texas, New Mexico, and into Mexico. Hueco Tanks State Historical Park 30 miles east of El Paso is the fascinating Hueco Tanks State Historical Park. For thousands of years, the indigenous people who lived in the area came to the site to drink water that collected in indentations in the granite rock. These indentations, called tanks, were quite popular, and the people who visited the area painted pictographs and carved petroglyphs, which you can still see to this day! Most of the artwork can only be reached through a guided tour; however, there are plenty of places to hike and rock climb. The 1.8-mile out and back Hueco Tanks Nature Trail, moderately rated, winds around the main mountain area of the park, where you'll see beautiful desert flora and fauna. If you take the guided tour, there's three to choose from: the 2-mile tour, a 3-mile tour, or the longest, a 4-mile tour. River Park Trail Enjoy hiking, jogging, or biking along the River Park Trail, or Rio Grande Trail! The paved, 11.9-mile trail begins at Country Club Road and ends at the New Mexico State border. The trail is mostly flat with just a slight rise in elevation and meanders along the banks of the Rio Grande River. You'll also have views of the Franklin Mountains, and leashed dogs are welcome to join you! Grab a bottle of water, a map, strap on your hiking shoes and enjoy these trails near beautiful El Paso, Texas! Image via pixabay.com | Licensed under Pixabay License

During the winter, most people are unable to handle many cleaning tasks outside the home, including cleaning their cars it’s just too cold! But with spring, you get an excellent opportunity to give your Lexus a thorough cleaning! Clean the entire vehicle's interior and exterior thoroughly to eliminate any mud and unwanted creatures. Here are some cleaning tips you can apply to ensure that your vehicle is clean in spring! Invest in Cleaning Tools With the right tools and materials, cleaning your car becomes easier and more effective. You should invest in a decent vacuum cleaner, several brushes of varying sizes, and several towels, sponges, and rags, as well as various cleaning products. These products should be recommended for cleaning different materials and surfaces, such as plastic, vinyl, leather, upholstery, and carpet. The ideal vacuum cleaner should have hoses that can stretch to reach hidden areas and carpets. The wiping and polishing materials include fine cloth rags, terry cloth towels, microfiber towels, and others. Cleaning your Car's Exterior Your Lexus’ exterior needs special attention to ensure that it's crystal from the top down. Use a soft sponge when cleaning the vehicle's body to avoid scratching your car's clear coat. It's also vital to rinse the body thoroughly to remove any cleaning detergent residues. When drying your car, use a scratch-free wash mitt or a microfiber cloth. Afterward, flush the underbody to loosen salt and protect your vehicle from rusting. Declutter your Trunk During winter, many car trunks become storage areas for essential items that help keep up with the extreme weather. When spring sets in, it's time to declutter your trunk; you don't need all these items in your car with the change of seasons. Besides, you'll reduce the weight your vehicle has to bear. Carpet and Upholstery When spring-cleaning your Lexus, it's vital to take care of the carpet and upholstery. Get all the removable car mats from your vehicle and clean the debris on the floor and upholstery using a brush and a dustpan. When you're through, use a vacuum cleaner to clean the surfaces. You must also vacuum the car mats before putting them back into your vehicle. If the carpet has sand marks or stains, remove them using a damp cloth and upholstery cleaner or a heavy-duty carpet cleaner for the stubborn stains. Cleaning the Wheels Wash your Lexus’ wheels thoroughly, using detergent, warm water, a scrubbing brush, and a damp cloth. Ensure that you've removed all dirt in the tire tread patterns. If you have the knowledge and adequate skills, remove the hubcaps and then clean and replace them. Use the right cleaner for your wheels to avoid damaging them. It's crucial to avoid cleaning your car wheels when they're hot to prevent injuries. Invest in several soft brushes for cleaning the hard-to-reach areas in the wheels. Detailing your Lexus’ interior and exterior after winter can take a long time, but the results will amaze you! Afterward, adopt a regular detailing program to maintain your vehicle's new appearance longer. Your car will also remain odorless and well-organized, keeping you healthy and comfortable.
