Big Bend Trip


I just got back from our week long trip to Big Bend and back.
It was fabulous! We drove to Del Rio the first night. Marathon
Texas the second night. Stayed in the park at the Chisos Mountain
lodge third night. 2 nights in Terlingua, and then back on the
road: one night in Ft. Stockton and beyond.
We loved the park. So much variety and awesome scenery.
I did some painting and kept my sketchbook journal. I will
be posting some of the work in the next few days.
This is a sketch of Judge Roy Bean's building in Langtry, Tx.
We stopped here on our way, and learned all about him and his
"law west of the Pecos".
The second sketch is from the park once we were inside.
More tomorrow. Now for a good night's sleep!!
