The tour meet up is right in the Old Town area, which itself is nice. We booked ours in the early evening so partway through it became night for some of the places we toured through. It included great historic stories of not only the town, but the ghost stories that folks have experienced over the decades+. If puns and bad jokes are your thing, these two do it well. And they're my thing so I had fun throwing a few at them myself (which I've allowed them to add to their speeches if they feel the need to). All in all, recommended experience for fellow ghost hunters, fans of tours and a good time.

It is open for "tours" - docents are available to point out features and answer questions (even when there are no current displays).

Throughout the year there are art shows and monthly speakers - all free to attend. There is also a small "gift shop": the docents run a table with books, cards, and items baring San Ysidro and the scene of his miracle - an angel ploughing his farm land for him.

If you love local events and culture, there is always something going on in town, whether it is a parade or a farmers' market. There is also an old church that is now a museum.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This place is hard to find on maps and most GPS systems. The address does not work. The official mailing address does not work on GPS systems or even on a map, its a MailIng Address only: 3650A Highway 528 Rio Rancho, New Mexico 87144 Google Maps on the website does not work, Google does not accurately place this location at all, do not use it. This has been verified by all the visitors that use Google Maps or Droid phones/Tablets Apple Maps on your Mac, iPhone or iPad do work precisely, but when you get there you will need to actually look at the screen to see that the building is a block east of 528 (i.e. you cant see that the building is not actually on 528 and the streets are not marked), just drive down the narrow (unmarked) street and watch the Map app, you'll see the building on the right side. J&R Vintage Auto Museum really is a block South of 550, and a block East of 528 in Rio Rancho near the intersection of 528 and 550. The official mailing address is on 528 but the building is not there, the building actually on a small street a block away from that map address. In reality its close to the intersection of. Christopher and Gabby Lane but neither one of those show up on any maps. The best way to find it if you don't have an iPhone is to simply use the GPS coordinates 35.323084,-106.571464 If you type that (accurately) in the search window of your iPhone or iPad's Maps app then it will place you right in the parking lot for the museum. If you can't do that then map your way to Montoya Road and 528 which is the the nearest major intersection that actually shows up on most maps. Turn East on Montoya Road then take the first street on the left then make the forst right. The building is on the right. http://www.jrvintageautos.com
