“Big Bend National park is preserved, protected,
and almost as wild as the day it was made.
It’s the essence of Texas as we like to think of it
— a gift to Texas and a gift to the nation.”
~ a dear quote I love from Big Bend National Park Impressions (Farcountry Press).

I wanted to share an art piece inspired by BBNP . . .
Another popular capture is the tunnel at BBNP. It is the very first highway tunnel to be built in Texas. How about this view taken above the tunnel. . .
Here’s an awesome reason to climb . . .
Another reason . . .
Always be prepared for the unexpected in the desert.
Which is also a perfect time for some desert drama . . .
You have to end the day with a sunset. And this one made me look twice . . .
Note: I have made an effort to search these images for Google in an attempt to only feature valid talent. Please relay if I have overlooked and posted a stolen image. I believe in giving credit to where it is due.

Gorgeous! We lived in Texas for a couple years and I really wanted to go here, but we were never able to make it. 🙁

Its understandable. Big Bend is a BIG trip to make. Not a convenient stop by any means. You fly and then drive for hours and hours. I live here and it takes me hours to get anywhere. Its a beautiful number of hours, but everything takes a nice long day or two. We’re still here if you ever decide to fly back and drive around for a week or so. 😉
Wow!! Such beautiful pictures!! I grew up in Texas, I haven’t been there for the longes time, but these pictures reminded me of it. Thanks a lot!
So glad to share the inspirations that I encounter with those that share the love. Thanks so much for stopping by and hope to stay connected!
