Trips












Well...we are back from Minnesota and Texas! Beth spent a week with the Lindsay women at Possum Kingdom Lake. Bob spent the day with Alyse and Jeff in Austin prior to a conference in San Antonio. And, we both spent 4 days in Minnesota this past week, visiting our MN Kids and Bob's family. Lots going on these days. We can rest a few weeks now before our BIG trip to Ireland with our friends, Julie and Al Harris. We were able to see them in Minnesota as well, and able to finalize some trip details. Get ready for a really BIG blog entry post trip! We were unable to get to northern MN to see Steve and Mary Anne, and Bill and Sue. Just wasn't enough time.
It is hard to believe the difference in weather between New Mexico, Texas and Minnesota. The heat is about the same (Mid to high 90's every day). But, the humidity in T and M really makes the high temps uncomfortable. We never fully realized the degree of difference until experiencing it these past few weeks. Another reason to stay in NM!! Yesterday it was near 100 here and certainly hot in the sun. But, after sundown the temps moderated to low 80's and along with the canyon breezes it was wonderfully refreshing.

Here are some pics from our MN and Beth's TX trips. Enjoy!!

PS. Still no reservations for Balloon Fiesta week. We have room for 4 and it is first come first serve!
