Our campsite at lyman lake state park on the way to silver city. And a boat. I’m thinking if we left the bicycles at home we could roll down
the road with this boat on the back of the jeep while we’re towing it. We
could be a triple.

Travel day. South through more of brother bill’s favorite desert southwest.
Past the city of rocks. Past faywood hot springs. Around the southern
point of the mountains and back to the north. North to elephant butte state
park for lunch. On to bosque del apache for the evening. Coyotes. Quail.
A crissal thrasher, new bird for us. White crowned sparrow, meadowlark,
ruddy duck, ringneck pheasant, lesser goldfinch, western kingbird Here is the campground sign. Can you imagine a more appropriate place for
us to be?

Happy autumnal equinox. It was feeling like Fall in Colorado. We retreated south to Summer. Silver
City, New Mexico. Eighty-five and fifty-five all week. Low humidity, as
low as Colorado, but the skin doesn’t feel as dry. I think humidity in the
teens at eighty degrees is different from humidity in the teens at thirty or
forty degrees. I really like it here. I haven’t had a chance to look around much, mostly
just back and forth from work, but what a beautiful spot we’re in. High
desert. Kingbirds, curve billed thrashers, canyon towhees, spotted towhees,
white winged doves. Got to go. First time job. It went very well. The job finished today. Exit
conference. Time to leave. Manyana.
