Bosque wildlife

November at the Bosque is great for wildlife shots. The birds are just starting to come in, but plenty of them and many other animals like the Mule Deer and Coyotes are out. We also saw some Bobcats, but they were back in the woods before we could even think about getting a picture.

just ask Cheri!

With the suggestion of Uncle Fred, we stayed and played in Glenwood Springs, CO a while and had a great time.

New Mexico Lacrosse

2007-05-20T14:10:00.000-07:00

Yes, you heard me right, "lacrosse" and "New Mexico" in the same breath. They have now started youth lacrosse leagues in New Mexico, and here are some pictures from a game between the Albuquerque Rage and Santa Fe Pep. Brian, our oldest son, is the goalie in the second shot. As you can see, it is a rough sport!

Mississippi huricane damage!

2007-05-17T14:52:00.001-07:00

I was able to go down to the Gulf Coast of Mississippi the other week as I visited our Partnering Parish, St. John's Episcopal Church, while there is a lot of rebuilding being done, I was taken by the damage and devastation still there, a year and a half later. Above is looking east on Beach Blvd. and shows how bad things still are.

This is where St. Mark's Episcopal Church in Biloxi, Mississippi used to stand. Now it is just over grown grass. As I was driving down Beach Blvd. along the coast, the Episcopal Church flag jumped out at me on this empty lot. They are now meeting at a new site further inland.

There are two foundations of homes here, one has been cleared off and a trailer set on it in Ocean Springs, MS as a temporary measure. This is just across the road from the Gulf Coast.

2007-05-17T10:24:00.000-07:00

We had a good lightning storm come in from the West last night and grabbed some photos from the back window!
