Big Bend National Park (3)
Coming out of the Baja after some adventures I will tell you soon, here is another update in Big Bend National parc.
1. Colored sunrise…
The weather is still cloudy, windy and cold. I take this opportunity to introduce you to some of the desert plants…
2. A faded agave flower stands proudly.
3. A nest in cactus…
4. Almost everything that grows here have thorns..!
5. Grains…
6. Nice tiny stars…
7. silky down…
8. Elegance…
9. A little ray greets me at the entrance of Pine Canyon. At this altitude – over 4000 feets high – the vegetation changes, the freshness of the canyon makes enough moisture for some trees, mostly pines and oaks, to growth.
10. Pine Canyon, back view…
11. A mexican jay, beautiful bird that announces the arrival of bipeds by repeated shouts..!
12. Tree on a cliff…
13. Undergrowth flower.
14. Sunset on Chisos Mountains.
15. What a sky to wish good night to Vivalavida..!
16. Arrival at the Grapewine Hills early morning.
17. Nice pinacles…
18. Balanced Rock…
19. Window on the landscape…
20. A yuca growing on the rocks.
The next update will still be in Big Bend NP, to be followed… 😉
Offroad weekend
Chris asked me if I would participate in a report of a journalist from a Californian offroad magazine about his business. Of course, I accepted because it was a great opportunity to test the capabilities of VivalaVida.
The bad weather has somewhat changed the program. while we were riding on Saturday, a heavy rain made us postpone our departure in the middle of the afternoon (it was still raining a downpour). Once there, the rain stopped around 18:30 with a beautiful rainbow, giving way to a cool but dry evening. Perfect for Spare Ribs with mustard and sugar cane around the campfire with some buddies! 😉

Next morinig, the sun was back for a gorgeous day, perfect for the photo shooting of three vehicles:
