I woke up this morning to the sound of rain on the roof. That is such a soothing sound. The alarm hadn’t gone off yet so I took my time waking up and found that, when fully awake, it was early morning sun. It hadn’t rained at all. It hasn’t rained in weeks. Except in my head.
Along the way
Danger. Low flying aircraft. That’s what the sign usually says.
But this one; this one scares me.
But this one; this one scares me. Monday
Morning coffee at the edge of the forest.
Spotted a Verdin nest.
We drive to the northwest for a few hours and here we are at Jeff and Carol’s outside Bandera in the Hill Country. Look how far north we are now: https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=201563872774147443355.0004c582cf68e9c98e366&msa=0&ll=37.788081,-96.503906&spn=23.645168,56.90918 Deer out the window.
We’ll stay here awhile.

Choke Canyon State Park
The day dawned at South Padre Island. The morning view. Coffee in the windshield.
I put a pin in the map for the pelagic birding tour. I’m not suggesting we took the motorhome 50 miles out, but that’s the reason the tour took so long. 50 miles to get to deep water so we could get pelagics. https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=201563872774147443355.0004c582cf68e9c98e366&msa=0&ll=27.5375,-96.965332&spn=6.650544,14.227295 We moved on. Finished the day at Choke Canyon State Park.
Wild Turkeys, White-tailed deer, and Javelina.
