Buenas! My name is Rhiannon, like the Fleetwood Mac song! I am in the Air Force stationed at Lackland AFB. I have lived in Texas all my life, rooted in the Rio Grande Valley and branched to San Antonio! I have my Bachelor’s in Criminal Justice from UIW, and am currently in Law School at St. Mary’s University. I have been in the military going on 16 years, and my husband Albert, recently retired after 22 years of loyal service. We have two wonderful and crazy kids who keep us on our toes and they help raise our three dogs and tortoise. We have a full house! My love for the outdoors, has been engrained in me since I was a kid, playing in the grapefruit orchards and outside with my dogs, and it was solidified while in my last TDY to Guam hiking all those beautiful trails. I love to sing musicals in my car (don’t worry, I keep the window’s up), and I love running and paddle boarding has become a new favorite.

Hola Amigos! My name is Jazmin, I have a B.A in Psychology, an M.A in Human Services Counseling, and am currently in grad school for an MSW. I am a native Texan, my spouse and I have been stationed at Ft. Cavazos, Joint Base Lewis McChord, Ft. Moore, and now we're back in my home town where Ft. Bliss is located on. 90% of the time you can find us enjoying the festivities, food, culture, and nature that the great state of TX has to offer. Growing up, my family and I often took trips to the Texas Coast or camped in various places along the Sierra Blanca Mountain Range in New Mexico. My love for the outdoors grew when my spouse and I got stationed at Joint Base Lewis McChord in WA State. If you haven’t visited or been stationed there, it is definitely a state you want to put on your bucket list. I haven't lived in El Paso, in over 11 years so I'm excited to be back and explore the area yet again. So, grab your boots, snacks, and backpack and join the Texas chapter as we hike our way around the state of Texas and New Mexico together!
