Back at El Porvenir Campground

After a very smoky night with the ash covering the sunset we awoke to clear skies and decided to head back into the forest for a few more days.


The drive up route 65 is a windy climb past a few villages.

The view is spectacular out over the valley past small ranches.

Gallinas Canyon also had a small fire we heard from our campground hosts when we arrived; glad we didn't decide to head that way.

Back "home"

We set up our camp and relaxed.


We enjoyed yummy meals.

Will cut us some firewood; love that smokey smell.

The hummingbirds came back.

On Monday Jerry took his bike for a spin.

Check out this art piece we found.

And we relaxed.

Who knows what the new world will be like after this.

Cliff married my little sister, Maria and became part of our family. We traveled to Italy together one summer Cliff had the coolest Man Cave! He really enjoyed technology and used it at work, home and helped everyone enjoy theirs too. He bought a boat that he and my sister enjoyed for many years. He walked his daughter down the isle. And welcomed Travis into his family. Not long after Layla was born and he became a very proud Pap Pap. He and my sister retired to Florida. Where Cliff learned to golf. One of my best memories are of our Cookie Days together. Cliff worked at Lowes and enjoyed his job in the paint department. He got sick; he found out he had stage 4-bladder cancer.
