Chanteyranger, I do wish we could come up further North, but we can't this time. Thank you so much for the invitation. It would have been such fun.
Dave's Wife, Thank you. I've PMed you back. That might just work out for the last day of our adventure. Our flight back home is late at night.
Stilly River Sage, We'll be on the high desert in New Mexico for a bit and the city lights haven't reached there yet. We are willing to brave the big cities on our way if it means meeting Mudcat friends, though. I've been studying those web-sites you gave me a while back - about grasslands and wildflowers. They were really helpful. Thank you.
Cheers, Joy
