Dancing Deer & Other Things

  I decided to get back online and take my chances with my Evil Twin discovering me.

We are still staying with Susan in Grey Forest, TX.  Scotty has been doing lots of odd jobs for her.   I haven't been doing much of anything but hanging out. 
  Here are a few pictures;

This was the biggest Swallow Tail I have ever seen.  It was also fast.

My Evil Twin

This week I have been dealing with an evil twin who hacked into my Facebook account and then my email account from there.  This hacker sent emails to my contacts telling them that I was in London and had been robbed and needed money.  Most everyone knew it wasn't me because of the wording but it was still upsetting to have a hacker emailing or chatting with you pretending to be someone you know.

I thought I had the problem solved yesterday, but this morning they were back.  They hacked back into my facebook account and changed the password so that I couldn't access it!  Now I'm no longer annoyed, I'm ticked! 

It took me over an hour to get into my account and change the password so that I could close it.
So, as of today, I am no longer on Facebook.  I am sure my evil twin will tire of trying to reopen it and will move on.  Unfortunately, to someone else's account.  Facebook has a page in the help menu on dealing with this scam, but I don't believe they actually do anything about stopping it.

I will try to blog more so that people can check to see where we are & what we are up to.

Hello Helotes!

 We arrived at our wonderful friend Susan's home in Helotes, TX on Thursday afternoon. 
 We had a greaat dinner on the patio and chatted into the night over wine.  It was wonderful.
 While we are here I hope Scotty will rest and get his back feeling better. 

This Swallow Tail flitted around all day.

This guy was at The Wooden Spoke Campground


By The River RV Resort in Kerrville, TX where we met up with Jim & Linda again.

Since this guy had no olive branch we think he was an escapee from either a wedding or a magic show.

Colorado

  On Monday we left Utah and headed to Colorado.  We made a stop at the Welcome Center in Fruita for lunch and to pick up some information.  Boy, did we get information. Not only did the people who work there help us, but there were other travelers there that told us about all the great places they had been.  It was very informative, to say the least.
  With a stack of brochures and some new maps we headed down Highway 50 to the  Passport America campground in Montrose.  Centennial rv park is a nice place, very level, rather new.  The only campground rule is "Do unto others"  which we think is VERY cool.  We have decided to spend a total of 4 nights here since they were nice enough to extend the PA fee ($15.50) for up to a week since it's past Labor Day.
  We spent Tuesday driving the South Rim Rd. of  Black Canyon of Gunnison National Park .  Again, I took too many pictures, but I think you'll like the ones I am posting.
