We're at John's cousins' ranch in New Mexico. It's east (and up) from Alamogordo, and south of Cloudcroft. We flew to El Paso yesterday, and took the van shuttle to Alamogordo, where they picked us up. We'll be here until Thursday, when we go back to El Paso to meet up with the Copper Canyon trip. There is no cell phone reception here, but (obviously), they do have satellite and a computer connection.
Of course, we've been glue to the TV - watching Ike roar ashore in Galveston and Houston. Anne & Nick stayed put. They've gotten a generator which will keep up their refrigerator and freezer going, and maybe to use the microwave occasionally. So barring falling trees on the house, they should be okay. No telling how long they'll be without power.
We had a great visit in CA, and enjoyed spending time with the folks there and getting to see Alison and nephews and families.
The weather is gorgeous here. They've had so much rain in the late summer - the pastures are all green and the cows and horses are fat and sassy.
I'll post again when I can.
