Wow. Wow & Wow.

This is all so amazing to me. Every where I go out here, I see wonderful colors, amazing forms...
I want to paint it. I want to sculpt it.
I am speechless.

Silver City is my Plan B

I am finding my tribe.
This is brilliant.

Huge WOW

Big Bend was so amazing. I am still in overload from all of the colors.
It was a definite sensory overload.
Even thinking about it, I can feel every cell freaking out.

After a long day driving...spending the night in Las Cruces.

We actually found a rock hounding sight with a winery...yup. Life begins now.

We have finally left Louisiana

and it was hard. Very, very hard.

I know that it has been hard on us because we are both sniping at each other. We only do that when our emotions are running high and we are trying to protect each other from their force.

One thing that I can say for sure...
I am so happy that we were given the gift of these last 3 weeks with my fabulous Mother-in-law. I have just adored spending time without a 'Family Event' (crazy time) going on, to just be. She is drop dead amazing. The only other person that I have ever been around that is so subversively funny is my husband (her son).

So we are in Austin...& sniping at each other...(but we had a fabulous dinner of tapas at Malaga) & then we got back to our motel room & Kay was calling asking where the checks were & my dad was calling to find our where we were & if we were ok & the police were in the parking lot around our car (NH plates) & we realized that we are ok...really, really ok.

Easter...I suck

so we are with family.
It's Easter.
This is a really big deal.
I don't get  it  but I am trying.
