Thanks to the governor of New Mexico, the Route 66 RV Resort (along with the Route 66 Casino Hotel) is closed.

I checked with the Resort and they don't know when they will be able to reopen.

According to the New Mexico Dept. of Health:

Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham and state health officials on Friday announced the state of New Mexico will temporarily re-enact a statewide order closing in-person services for all non-essential activities in order to blunt the unprecedented spike of COVID-19 illnesses and to attempt to relieve dramatically escalating strain on hospitals and health care providers across the state. The heightened restrictions statewide, enacted through an amended emergency public health order issued by the state Department of Health, will be in effect for two weeks.

Thankfully, there are other RV parks and campgrounds in Albuquerque that are still open. 

I'll be staying at one the night before the morning flight to Dallas, Texas.
