In Guanajuato, Mexico.
Way too much to catch up on. We left Alabama for Mississippi and then continued west to Texas to rendezvous with some "Escapees" to head into Mexico. Mexico was awesome. We went to Saltillo, Zacatecas (our favorite) and Guanajuato. We loved them all. The Mexican people were great the food was good and we really had a good time and will probably return.

On return from Mexico we followed the Rio Grande along the MEX/US border, the north into New Mexico. The birding along the Rio Grande was awesome, I'm 2 short of 400 life birds at this time. We saw Big Bend National Park, Davis Mountain State Park, Hueco Cliffs State Park, Guadaloupe Mountains National Park and Gilla Cliffs National Monument. All were great. The scenery, birding, hiking and just relaxing has been wonderful.

We worked our way into Colorado having seen countless Pictographs and Petroglyphs, terrific rock formations, and lots of new flora and fauna. At Colorado we parked the RV in Spook and Brenda MacFillin's, friends we met on the Mexico trip, and headed east via military hop from Peterson AFB to MD to visit Bill, Ann, Marisa and Sammy, then to PA to visit my folks and then down to Birmingham to visit with Jayme, Chris and Braelyn. These grandkids are great. With no bias at all I can say without any reservation that they are the best in the world.
