Carlsbad Current-Argus - It's going to be a day at the beach for Loving resident Adama Vasquez. After winning a $250,000 jackpot from the New Mexico Lottery, Vasquez said she plans to take a vacation to Hawaii. She said surfing lessons are out, but poolside refreshments will be topical during her tropical adventure. Vasquez beat odds of 1 in 435,897 to land the top prize in the Roadrunner Cash game. Her quick-pick ticket for the May 22 drawing matched the winning numbers of 15, 25, 29, 30 and 37. The winner, who bought her ticket at Food Jet No. 2 located at 3102 National Parks Hwy. in Carlsbad, discovered her good fortune after checking her ticket with winning numbers published in the Carlsbad Current-Argus. "I had to read it five times," Vasquez recalled for lottery officials in Albuquerque Tuesday. "I didn't know if I was dreaming." She showed the ticket to her husband, Ben. "He looked at me like I was crazy," Vasquez said. Read More News New Mexico
