Sunrise over Texas.  It just doesn’t get any better than this.  What a great example of “purple mountains majesty”, but who would thunk that there were purple mountains in Texas?! 

Remembering that the air was cool and crisp.  The desert smelled like the most fragrant incense — just like the Church at Christmas!   

On the road from Ft Stockton to Alpine at the edge of the Chihuahua Desert and Big Bend National Park.

We are astounded at the desert in bloom.  Abundant rains in Texas this year brought the whole countryside to life.  It was truly a gift to see these marvelous flowers in September.
