not sleeping in on vacation



the past few days have been spent in ruidoso with my wife and my mom. We took colleen's new car for it's maiden voyage and i am pleased to say that it has performed quite well. She has been so happy with it that it makes me want to smile. We came up tuesday evening and started early wednesday morning treking through the woods with a gps unit to find plot points set by the forest service. Why? Because they hired colleen to take pictures facing north east south and west.
Then we'll go back after they clear out a bunch of dead wood that could fuel a forest fire, to show what a difference it makes. It is really a pretty cool project, plus hiking through the woods on an adventure like that is just cool to begin with. We had a great time and col shot over 2gb of pictures (obviously more than just the plot point pictures, she shot a bunch of nature and random stuff of us playing around.



as I type this we are cruising somewhere between nowheresville and the middle of nowhere. Colleen is driving and I am on my lovely little iPhone. Believe it or not the Internet access capabilities are amazing. We have been in some seriously random and remote locations and I think we have had full data service nearly the entire time. Now my wife is telling me it is time to switch drivers. I guess i forgot to mention that we are on the way to san antonio to visit family and see warped tour.

Hours later we are at my cousins house and it is two am, wow it is so bedtime.
Random pictures of the trip. Now it is bedtime
