This is not getting any easier the more I'm doing it. Leaving behind friends is still as hard to do today as it was when I left Bonnie and Tom in November or Jason in December. It reminds me of how happy I felt to have helped Hal and Ann move from New Mexico to Texas into their new home but saying goodbye was very difficult. Even though my stay at Sheila's in Crocket was way to short I will always be thankful for the short time we spent together. Carly and little Zoey are beautiful and I enjoyed them so much. My cousins Jorge and David in Dallas and their beautiful families. Being so happy to have seen my Mother for a week because she missed me but having to take her back to the airport wasn't easy.
Now I'm faced with doing it again with Sarah and Nathan. The little ones have been the most difficult to say bye to and little Nova has already been pulling at my heart strings.
It didn't take long after my arrival in Shreveport for her to warm up to me and soon we were both on the couch with our iPads gossiping!
I had the pleasure of going to the zoo with her a couple of times.
Her parents Sarah and Nathan are beautiful individuals that have been so good to me. They made sure I wasn't bored at all when I wasn't birding.
Then you had not done enough!
Kelly McMullen we didn't get to spend nearly enough time to talk more birds but the short time was memorable!
Thank you for making time for me and showing me your beautiful collection of pheasants. Hopefully I get the chance in the future to visit you again.
To Jacob at the Pinola Conservancy I thank you for making time for me. You are doing some amazing work and wish you continued success managing the collection.
The thunderstorms were memorable. Never have I felt thunder like I did here and having Motel Miguel rock back and forth from it was terrifying. I hope the flooding doesn't last long and that the Red River gets back down to normal levels quickly.
Thank you again Louisiana and until we meet again!
