Everett picked up the harmonica today. We have quite the little musician on our hands.

Everett has been practicing walking over the last few weeks. In the last few days, he’s gotten quite good at it. Here’s a short video of his progression.

2011 Southwest Road Trip
Traveling back
We spent the last three days of our trip traveling back from Austin.
On day 12, we made it from our camp site in Pomona (east of LA) to Tucson, Arizona. The RV park we picked had a heated outdoor swimming pool that we got to enjoy before ending our day.
The swimming pool at Balmorhea State Park
On day 13 we drove from Tucson to Balmorhea State Park in west Texas. The state park, located near the town of Balmorhea, Texas has a giant swimming pool fed by natural springs. We got up the next morning and spent some time splashing around in the pool before heading toward home.
We arrived back in Austin at about 8:30pm Friday night and our vacation was over. We had to clean, fill up and return the RV the next day.
We had a great time on our trip despite some interesting weather. If we did it again, we probably wouldn’t have traveled as far (too much driving!). But despite the long distance and unlucky weather, we got to see some amazing landscapes and make some family memories that we’ll never forget.
