We're attempting to make the most of the few weeks we have left here in Silver City. One recent weekend, after our house was about as empty & spotless as it can be while we still live in it, we decided to take a day off & have a picnic & a walk in the Gila Wilderness. We drove just about 15 minutes and found a picnic area, spread out a few blankets, make-shifted sun protection as necessary (Adam forgot a hat, so he wore Simon's shirt) and enjoyed the spread. Then we went for as long a walk as (8-month-pregnant) I could handle. It was sunny & warm & beautiful - and boy, am I going to miss the smell of hot dust and juniper and the warm vanilla-syrupy smell of the Ponderosa Pines.
