Happy Diá de los Muertos!

Posted on November 2, 2026 by Jabo

The first snow of the year, clouds, the Hunter Moon and this year’s pumpkins to celebrate! Ending off with a lightning show a few nights ago when Santa Fe had a rare tornado hit town.

Jabo’s Annual Halloween Cartoon 2026

Posted on October 31, 2026 by Jabo

Wassup ghouls and gargoyles?

It’s that time o’ year when the weather gets wicked, the countryside goes dark and the tv political ads get incredibly annoying. Be glad you aren’t a Muslim, trans kid, immigrant, dumocrat, Socialist, Communist, human or otherwise awake! Celebrate by enjoying this year’s cartoon extravaganza with a secret twist (no… it’s not you-know-who’s neck… that would be wrong)! Jabo’s Annual Halloween Cartoon 2026 is now alive and creeping around the interwebs. Enjoy!

Paseo del Bosque 10_27_26

Posted on October 28, 2026 by Jabo

We took our bikes down to Albuquerque to ride the Paseo del Bosque trail for our usual Fall ride here. We thought the trees would all be yellow but they’ve only just started to change. The Rio Grande is running very high due to all the rains here and up North and the greenery is now very green (except for some cottonwoods, sadly)!

Ocracoke Island 10_26, Part 2

Posted on October 26, 2026 by Jabo

We spent time exploring the Springer’s Point Preserve with its beach, trails, plants, trees and wild kitties. A great place within walking distance to watch the sunset. Also spent time in town dodging golf carts and visiting the many cemeteries, including one dedicated to British sailors killed by a Uboat. Lots of scary Halloween skeletons were up all over town.

Ocracoke Island 10_26, Part 1

Posted on October 23, 2026 by Jabo

After a long drive from Greenville, we made it to the ferry and made a rainy crossing to Ocracoke Island. Another day of rain from the remnants of Hurricane Isaias followed but we still managed to walk the beach. Next day was sunny and the beach was practically deserted. Lots of beachcombing followed by a nice sunset.

Greenville, SC 10_8_26

Visiting friends here in Greenville before driving out to Ocracoke Island off the North Carolina coast (where Blackbeard plied his trade). Made a stop at the Conestee Nature Preserve, a beautiful wetlands park right in Greenville.

Morning visitor, a rainbow and sky 10_4_26

Posted on October 5, 2026 by Jabo

While enjoying a cup of java on the portal, a small prairie dog raced by followed by a bobcat who stopped and posed for me. I’m also including the last rainbow after all of our rain and a sky panorama from a rail trail bike ride.

Rain renderings 9_29_26

Posted on September 29, 2026 by Jabo

This week has brought us the remains of Hurricane Polo (now a tropical depression) and another 2.5″ of rain to go with the 3″ we received last week. Lots of flooding around the state with more rain to come but so far, we’re just very muddy. Here’s a collection of rain shots from the last few weeks as well as a time lapse of Tschicoma Peak and the clouds racing below.
