Skywatch Friday





It seems like a month for company. This week, my
daughter from NC is here to visit. Yesterday, we took
a drive around Big Bend and the border country.
This photo is a small canyon in Pinto Canyon in the
Chinati Mountains. The sky was
wonderful and the terrain fantastic.

These next three photos are of the Rio Grande and
its surroundings, as taken from the 'River Road'
that runs from Study Butte, TX to Presidio, TX





It seems to beg the question, "Where does the
fence go?"

Pretty canyon! But it doesn't appear the Rio Grande gets any cleaner as it heads south from here!! (Albuquerque.)

Its muddier than normal due to all the rain we've been having.
