Last week Randy, Jack and I returned from a great 1,300 mile ride out west to Fort Davis and Big Bend.

Randy took like a thousand pictures, all good, but thats too many pictures, so here is my subcollection mostly taken by Randy.

Brad, a better title would have been "Our Most Recent Ride".

I thought you were getting rid of a motorcycle or something.

Nice pics Brad.

We travlled through the Big Bend area in our VW van way back in 95. Left the van in Presidio for a few days and took a bus to Chihahua and the train through the Copper Canyon and back. A wonderful side trip.

Lovely area in southern Texas. It's an area we recommend to everyone.

So, did Randy do the whole trip on one fill-up with all that fuel capacity?

Yes - I can see where the subject line was a very poor choice.

For my last five years at work I dreamed about running around Mexico. The border is just a short day trip from my house. It has been a huge dissapointment to me that the situation down there makes that a very bad idea.

Gas was no problem, but we had to stop several times for wine.
