Sunrise In El Paso

This last month here in the city of the Sun has been a lot of fun. I’ve really enjoyed taking photographs of the Sunrises and Sunsets. Wide open skies and spaces just ads to the flavor of the our stay here. For you Charles, I’m speaking of the food too. For those who read this blog, I hope the journey has been as much fun for you as it has been for me. I have enjoyed meeting up with old friends and family that we have not seen in many long years.

The next few days will be getting ready to take off and travel up into New Mexico, I will post as often as I can. Our travel plans are not set in stone, as far as New Mexico is concerned. The weather will have the most influence as to our pace and destination.

I hope everyone will look forward to the posting of many new pictures and ramblings as we travel along the byways and highways.

He tried and missed, but he sure cleared off the feeder for a while.

I would have taken more pictures but their was a person praying at the alter, so I didn’t intrude.

El Paso, Texas

Debbie standing in the front of her childhood home. It had really changed and was so much different than I remember it from back in 1969. I didn’t think it would upset her to see it again, but she got a little emotional. I think it made her a bit sad.
