I spent this weekend in Big Bend National Park. This was my second trip to the park. While it was a long drive (over 600 miles, each way, from Houston) and was a bit cold (had ice in the tent on Saturday morning), we had a good time.
We hiked to the top and then the bottom of Window Falls. It is a 200' tall waterfall in the park.
This is from the top:

I spent the next day hiking The Lost Mine Trail while the rest of the crew tackled Casa Grande. These peaks were around 7,000'. This is me at the end of the trail. Casa Grande is just over my left shoulder.
We covered almost 20 miles of hiking during the weekend. Of course, I will have a few more pictures uploaded soon at the Flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/michaelandshelli/
Kailey and Shelli are both doing great. I'll try to get some more posted later this week.
