- Damien Rice: O I LOVE this CD. It's just haunting. Perfect for a quiet moment. Soooo good.

- Iron & Wine and Calexico: In the Reins If you like Iron & Wine (I do) and you like Calexico (I do), give this collaboration a try. Each song is good for distinctly different reasons. It works, but unexpectedly so.
- The Grateful Dead: American Beauty I'm not a dead head - in fact this is the only album of theirs i have. But Box of Rain is incredible.

There are some good bald eagle spots in NM. I particularly recommend Bosque del Apache and also Hwy 285 just south of the CO border. Once I was driving by there and there was a bald eagle just sitting on the fence by the side of the road. I turned around and tried to check it out. When I got out of the car, it took off. Absolutely amazing.
This was taken off Hwy 29 between Burnet and LLano........the river runs directly behind the eagle nest.
We saw baby eagles in this same spot last summer.......they are beautiful!
