I left off last year after moving from Seoul, Korea, to El Paso, Texas. It has been a big, big change! I'm working as a preschool/pre-kindergarten teacher at a lovely small private school and taking graduate courses in Education at University of Texas at El Paso. The first year I was just swamped with juggling everything, but I am hoping to get back to writing this year.
Aside from a change in location, things haven't changed much. I posted some photos below of Franklin State Park, right smack in the middle of the City of the Sun. Enjoy and check back for more posts about crafting, cooking, and traveling.
Landscape and color scheme typical of the area. Beautiful pale greens and shades of earth.

These plants dot the landscape for miles around El Paso.
Gorgeous lichen clinging to boulders along the trail.

The radio towers at the peak.
If you're thinking of hiking in Franklin State Park, make sure to choose a cool day or get started very early in the morning. The trail is not too difficult, but the sun can be brutal. Wear sunblock, bring water, sunglasses, and a handkerchief (it gets sweaty!).
