Happy Juneteenth/ Freedom Day! A day that marks the end of slavery in the United States and celebrates the incredible resilience, strength, and contributions of Black Americans. As I reflect on this important date, I am filled with immense pride and gratitude. Juneteenth is not just a historical date; it’s a reminder of the power of perseverance and the relentless pursuit of equality. It’s a day to celebrate freedom and acknowledge the journey that brought us here. Happy Juneteenth to all! Let’s celebrate with joy, reflection, and a renewed commitment to progress! #Juneteenth #FreedomDay #BlackExcellence

I was fortunate to visit White Sands National Park for the second time this year, and let me just say, it was even more magical this time around! Even in knowing what to expect, White Sands still manages to take your breath away, revealing new layers of its enchantment with each visit. The vast expanse of shimmering white gypsum dunes, stretching as far as the eye can see, creates a surreal landscape that feels almost otherworldly. Walking through the dunes, you can feel the fine, cool sand under your feet, and the way the sunlight plays off the ripples and curves is simply mesmerizing. The contrast of the deep blue sky against the pristine white sands is a sight that never gets old. The drive was equally enchanting as I traveled from Artesia through the picturesque Lincoln National Forest. The route offers a diverse array of scenery, from the lush, green forests and towering pines of the mountains to the dramatic, rugged terrain that eventually gives way to the vast, open desert. The transition from the cool, shaded forest to the sunlit expanse of White Sands is a journey in itself, full of awe-inspiring views. (And it's home of the Smokey Bear!) Though my son is no longer in New Mexico, White Sands has become a special place for me, one that I will visit often. Once you’ve experienced this slice of heaven on earth, it’s impossible not to return. What’s next on my adventure list? What National Park should I visit next? I’d love to hear your recommendations!

In the midst of preparing for my trip to New Mexico next week, I checked the weather forecast and discovered the heartbreaking news about the forest fires in the beautiful, small village of Ruidoso, where I had planned to spend a day with my family. This is absolutely devastating and terrifying. The fire is currently burning on tribal and USDA Forest Service land within areas surrounding Ruidoso. Residents of Ruidoso were given the order to evacuate immediately today as well... My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Ruidoso, especially the brave fire department personnel...I'm hoping for favorable wind conditions and a swift end to the fires. #Ruidoso #Forestfires #SouthForkFire #SaltFire If you'd like to help: The American Red Cross is accepting monetary donations.
