A Collection of Photographs

October 2019
After trying out a small travel trailer the previous fall, we decided to buy a 17-ft Casita trailer, small, but just right for short trips to places like Big Bend and other parks. I went solo on this trip, staying at the new Paisano Village RV Park in Study Butte and Rio Grande Village in the national park.
Most of the trip involved wildflower photography, with photos taken while hiking or on my mountain bike. This was a very good wildflower season. Click here to see some the photos.
