just a taste

I have been gone for most of the past week.

Here is what I did, drove 360 miles to St Paul Minnesota
flew 705 miles to Denver, then another 800 miles to San Antonio Texas.
from there we drove 450 miles to Big Bend Nat Park in west Texas.
and then we did it all in reverse to get home. 
we were only in the park for 1 day and 2 nights.
one of our daughters got married there.
here is a small taste of the gorgeous scenery that we did get to see

Sunset through  the Window
the gap in the mountains above is called the Window.  they were married in the morning in front of the Window as the sun came up over the mountains to the east.  we celebrated their wedding supper as the sun went down behind the Window. 
there are more, but this is all for now.
I did some tatting on the drive to St Paul and on the first flights, but didn't do much after that, too little sleep with all the traveling. 
now it is catch up time, at home, work and all my tatting friend's blogs.
take care.
