Travel: February In Montana- or not Montana….

I like ski time in the sun-  but I need to get away for warmth…

feb 2013 006feb 2013 005

Off to MX with family.  Beach time with cousins and sunburned day one because we did not learn a darn thing about sun and skin.  When Birch has his skin cancer removed everyone remind me.

Heading to Espiritu Santos for camping.  Cole still wears his fast suit  ( speedo ).

Mt Kilimanpoop named by the kids and sacrificial alter to for dead fish to the sea birds.  I have never seen Birch whack a fish on the rock to kill it when it was only half alive like that before.  “ Putting it out of its misery before the sacrifice.”  - All circle of life. 

Lots of great days on this trip.
