Bill and I will be heading west (love those words), this summer, to attend a family reunion (mine) and to do some
camping and exploring. It will be a road trip and a belated honeymoon, and we are both anxious and ready to go. I plan to do some serious
birding or, at least, as much as can be done in the summer months. This will give me a long-awaited opportunity to dust off my western bird guides and get back to the country I so love. Bill matches me in his love of the west and his love of camping and and will, no doubt, be handling most of the photography and video work with our
digital cameras. We may both be getting close to retirement, but no way are we going to slow down or give up the things that are so dear to our hearts. The only thing better than a trip out west for me is a trip out west with someone I love.
