Guataloupe River State Park

We stayed here for a few days.......


The sites were very nice but the park is in a dessert.



The trails were made of dirt, rocks, and cacti.



Sadie says: "had to be on a leash cause Mum thought I would run into a cactus. It was hot. When I am hot I stick my tongue out. Look how pink it is."


I went to the river on the last day.


Wished I had gone sooner.


Was incredible.


The root systems are amazing.


This tree had the coolest base.


Here it is up close.


Guess I wouldn't have seen so much if the water was higher.


I did see a rattle snake sunning on the road when I was on a run. Cool!

Gotta run.

I'm going to be in Big Bend National Park for the next week. There is no phone or cell service. Not sure when I will be able to post again.

Poor Sadie - she looks hot. The pictures are amazing - wouldn't mind a few for my wall.
Watch out for those snakes...it looks like the other one I thought was a rattler!!
