Spring Break

It's now the last day of my fabulous and much-needed Spring Break. Greg and I left after school Friday for a backpacking trip in Big Bend National Park on the Texas and Mexico border. We had a great 6 day/5 night trip in the rugged desert backcountry (see the related blog for our pictures and stories). On the way back from Big Bend we stayed in the Texas hill country (west of San Antonio) and visited the border town, Nuevo Laredo. Then, my parents flew from Oregon for a week-long visit to the Rio Grande Valley...so many more adventures to come!
