I love your story about someone needing to kill 30 minutes coming to a NWR tour loop. I've seen that at Laguna Atascosa and Aransas NWR. They find the first couple of miles interesting and then race through the last 13 miles because they are either bored or rushed. That became such a problem at Laguna that they put in a few dozen speed bumps on the back of the auto tour loop to protect the ocelots and other wildlife.Mark & Terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06410651360395422840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155514213922491267.post-235624555421607452013-08-24T13:59:19.286-05:002013-08-24T13:59:19.286-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Strayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08124298302997708537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155514213922491267.post-83731503748533669922013-08-24T13:58:51.759-05:002013-08-24T13:58:51.759-05:00I love the green heron photo.

I love the Chupadera mountain photo. I want to visit now! But I've seen it through your eyes, at least, if I never make it in person.Strayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08124298302997708537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155514213922491267.post-60846674758665880342013-08-24T10:50:15.961-05:002013-08-24T10:50:15.961-05:00I had to go fetch and see if this was where I was ...I had to go fetch and see if this was where I was ... and sure enough it was... just amazing there...<br /><br />http://amigoingsomeplace.blogspot.com/2012/11/bosque-del-apache-nwr-new-mexico.html<br /><br />And wow how embarrassed I could be as regards our photography ...

That's exactly what I did for awhile today on your blog and had to progress backwards but it was great fun seeing all the photos along the route. Chiles are not for me, but that burger at Manny's must have been great.Beatrice P.
