Vermejo Park Ranch

For Christmas of 2008, Bruce (the love of my life) gave me a weekend get away to Vermejo Park Ranch in New Mexico. At Vermejo Park Ranch there are several things to do, hunting, fishing, site seeing, and relaxing…

So in May, I cashed in on my Christmas weekend get away, which Bruce and I had great time fishing, getting lost in the park, and relaxing in the cold, rainy weather. I can say Bruce did get some entertainment while we were on this Christmas weekend get away.

My responsibility is to load the boat with the light weight fishing stuff, fish (one pole) and not to hook Bruce. Bruce, loads the heavy fishing stuff in the boat, drives the boat, fishes with two poles, and takes my caught fish off my hooks. So let me tell you how the weekend went…I lost two pretty, shiny, trout baits and damaged my fishing rod, hooked myself a couple of times, received several bruises on my legs from pushing the small fishing boat off into the water, tangled my line with Bruce’s line, froze, and almost fell out of the boat. Every time I did one of my entertainment stunts, Bruce would just smile and shack his head. He was a great sport and we did have a great time.

I love to fish, but of course I’m not good at it…

During the weekend we saw over a thousand elks, hundreds of deer, herd of buffalo, three black bears, two bald eagles, and one coyote. I did hear some turkey gobbling and some other unknown bird sounds.

This was the second year of enjoying Vermejo Park and hopefully there will be more to come…
