My concession to winter

 

 

I’ve switched from cotton socks to wool socks.

 

Ted’s getting out of control.

 

Now he’s into the Corona…

A couple more shots of Lathrop.

 

Have to show the mountains…

 

But now we’re at Chatfield.  Dinner with Matt, Lindsay, Alex, and Austin (and Zoey and Gus).  It’s good to be here.

An easy day’s drive; we’re at an RV Park named Bosque Birdwatcher’s RV Park in San Antonio, NM.

It’s only a big gravel parking lot with hookups, but what a great place to be.  Quail and Thrashers in the undergrowth.  Six miles from Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge.

 

The Snow Geese and Sandhill Cranes are here for the winter.

Las Cruces, NM

 

We did it.  We drove out of Texas.  That means we’re more than halfway there!

An afternoon walk at Mesquilla Valley Bosque State Park just a few miles from the RV Park we’re at.  Brand new.  We’ve never seen it before.  Asked a ranger there when it opened.  2008….  I guess I haven’t been paying attention.

 

Crissal Thrasher

 

Singing

 

…and Ted has made himself at home.

Picked up a rider along the way: Ted.
