Unit 37 Driving Down South

B: Isn't it great that there aren't any classes on Monday?

We have a three-day weekend! G: That's right!

Do you have any special plans? B: My family is taking a trip to Las Cruces.

I'm really looking forward to it. Have you ever been there? G: No, but I've heard about it.

Is it nice? B: Yes, there are so many things to see.

The city is famous for its nuts. G: What kind of nuts?

B: Pecans.

There are many pecan trees growing in and around the city. G: I like pecans.

How far away is Las Cruces from here? B: It only takes about four hours by car if you use the freeway and drive directly south.

G: That certainly makes for an easy trip.

When are you leaving? B: We're going on Saturday morning.

We'll be back on Monday evening. G: Have a nice time!

Bring me some pecans!
