Weekend getaway to the mountains

Even if for just a couple days it was nice to camping in the Red River area of New Mexico with another couple, it was a wonderful weekend if fishing, hiking and good old drinking and cooking! The cabin at Sierra Bonita was perfect and was right across from the river and just down from the fish ponds.
Day one resulted in tiny rainbow trout not worth eating being caught and thrown back. So we feasted on steak, corn on the cob and baked potatoes and drinks galore that first night after hiking and playing in a local cave we found.
Day two more hiking in the beautiful woods and actually catching fish, good enough to have with dinner, and boy were they tasty!! More drinking at night and s'mores ended the evening, and the cool mountain air was the perfect scene for a night walk to the ponds in hopes of seeing wildlife.
We did having little hummingbirds at the cabin and saw a few critters but no elk, deer or bears... Just stupid antelopes who wanted to jump in front of the car lol
So here's to a great weekend spent with the live of my life and some great friends Brenda and Jeff :)
Now I'm home and ready to play with my baby girl Honey!
