Thanksgiving 2011
We traveled out to my parents’ house in Wink for Thanksgiving – the highlight of which was getting to meet my nephew (not that seeing the rest of my family was great as well).

Fort Davis and Marfa
We just got back from a trip out to the West Texas towns of Fort Davis and Marfa. Saw alot of mountains and got to visit with family as well. It provided some much needed rest.
