Thanks everyone appreciated.
Heading home to Texas in a few weeks to make sure I still live there. :)
Hoping to get down to the coast for some birding on the Gulf, Brownsville, up the birding trail there to Big Bend maybe. If I can afford the gas prices there. I have been seeing some pretty high prices there lately.
Have any of you been that route. If so I would love some input and advice.
