Hey folks! Christa and I headed out to West Texas early last Monday to meet up with the Blitzers. Had the most wonderful time!! Took lotsa pics so I'm going to start out with just the drive out and back.
Sunrise in the AZ desert
Some neat strata in the mountains outside of El Paso
Max speed limit in AZ is 75.. kinda neat to go a lil faster. Legally that is
Man we fought the wind all the way across the states. Major dust storms in NM and big dust devils in TX. This particular one was huge and coming right at us!
Had to pull over quick to keep from getting sand blasted, picked up and whisked away to OZ
A bit further down the road before Marfa we saw this thing from many miles out. Some sorta weather blimp maybe? It's on a section that had an Airforce sign. It must have been tethered down tight 'cuz the wind was wicked and it wasn't moving
Here's a few wildflower shots Christa took out in the Texas desert
On the way back home the blimp thing was reeled out several hundred feet
Closer to home some virga hanging over the mountains
Granite boulders at Texas Canyon AZ
And almost home, losing the sun behind Picacho Peak
Hope you enjoyed the trip as much as we did.. much more to come ;D
