Pinchy does South America

Sorry the updates have been so few lately, but it is hard to find the time when you are on the road. Yesterday, I returned to the US of A after 2 months in South America. Most of that time was spent in Colombia which is as dangerous as a fluffy kitten. Granted while we were there 6 tourist were kidnapped and 2 were set free after ump-teen years captivity and our tour guide at the police museum in Bogota had recently been shot by guerrillas, but it seemed very safe. Maybe I am just not very good at perceiving danger. . . Highlights were seeing how cocaine is made. Let me just say that after watching someone make cocaine using cement and gasoline, it doesn't make you want to try some. Paragliding in Medellin. Swimming in a volcano in Santa Marta. Diving in Trinidad & Tobago. Searching tombs in Tierradentro. Swimming with sea lions in Galapagos. Tobogganing down a volcano in Manizales. River rafting in San Augustin (Ellis was not coordinated enough to stay in the boat). Getting pinchy a weapon in Bogota. I have plenty of stories about these adventures, but they will just have to wait until I see y'all. That will at least make some of you call me.

Now we are heading out to do a whirlwind tour of Texas and Colorado. Took Ellis to Mo's last night for some serious line dancing and boot scootin'. Hilarious!
