Skywatch Friday

A new sign in the sky. Last week saw
the raising of a new sign in 'downtown'
Marathon. We have a new establishment, The Famous Burro,
and the owner had this sign commissioned.




In addition to a beautiful sign, it is well lit at night by
led and uses less electricity than a 100 watt standard
light bulb. Unfortunately I don't have
a night shot with the sign lit. I'll try to get one and
post it later.

Key point, notice the great blue sky in the background.

Skywatch Friday - More from Big Bend

OK, I really love this place ( and I haven't taken any
new photos lately)

These are from the area called 'The Basin', the
highest easily acessable part of
the park. It is surrounded by magnificant
views

I hope you enjoy these photos.

Skywatch Friday - Big Bend National Park

Skywatch Friday, for February 27

These are some shots from Big Bend National Park, just
south of us here in Marathon. It is absolutely beautiful
and very interesting.


The terrain is quite varied, and most different
types of geological formation can be found.

We've been on geology tours of the park, and there's
no way I can remember all the different formations.

This park forms a part of the US border with Mexico
and is very rugged. It should be on everyone's
list of places to visit.

For more worldwide views of beautiful skies, visit
Skywatch Friday.

More from past travels. Today's photos are from
our visit to Grand Tetons and Yellowstone.

This first shot is from inside a small chapel at Grand Tetons.

This is a shot of the chapel itself.

What series from that area would be complete
without 'Old Faithful' itself.

I use our photos as a screensaver, and sometimes see a photo
that just screams to be on Skywatch Friday. This was one
of those. Taken from an RV park in East St Louis one evening.

Please enjoy. For more photos from around the world, please visit
