If the Border Patrol puts check points up and crops are grown, I call it “The Valley” regardless.

I have no appreciation for the Big Bend region either, might as well drive to Lincoln County New Mexico for the Sacramento Mountains.

Crossing the river in Big Bend to Boquillas is a must, but otherwise, yeah, why would I go to Big Bend when there’s New Mexico?

Ha! Just got back from spending 4 days at the Gage Hotel. Downed a gin & tonic or 4 at the White Buffalo!

And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
