Travel Stories

West Texas, Rio Grande

I've been to Europe, Peru, Utah, the West Texas desert, and lots of other cool places. While I'm working on my website, it has occurred to me that I've written more about the West Texas Desert than about all the other areas combined. I don’t know what that means, but the desert did speak to me more than many of the other, more glamorous areas.
