      @Matt While you're in the area, you should really check out McDonald Observatory near Fort Davis!  They've got a really great program and is definitely worth a visit.  There should be some clear, cool nights this time of year with plenty of visibility.

            My wife was in Marfa a few years ago. She booked a safari tent at El Cosmico.  Unfortunately, all the yurts and teepees had been booked.

            And yes, she has a picture of the Prada "store".

              More pictograph hunting yesterday.  Some of these are about 10k years old…

                Guided hike today with Alex, 30 year park ranger.  Great guy with lots of information and experience being part Navajo and part Mexican.  The guided hikes are in areas off limits to casual hikers.  The fun thing about this place is that while the trails at ground level are pretty heavily monitored and restricted once you’re in the rocks all is fair game.  Here he is showing us a cave used for sacred water prayer ceremonies 1500 years ago.  This place is bonkers…

                  Aodad are an invasive African mountain goat introduced to fill a hunting void left by the dying off of big horn sheep.  There aren’t enough mountain lions here to keep them in check and they don’t permit hunting  so they are everywhere.  Or so we were told.  This was our first and only sighting all week.

                    Chiricahua Natl Monument was not really on our immediate radar but our current stop has so many options we had to prioritize.  We were blown away…

                          Wow, I've never heard of Chiricahua until now, but that is damn impressive.

                            We hadn’t either.  It’s called “The Wonderland of Rocks”.  Definitely worth the trip.  The 3 parks in the area are all managed together as they are Para rivalry on top of each other.  Fort Bowie and Coronado are the other two. We didn’t make it to those but will be checking out Saguaro this weekend.

                                            I’m not there yet.  I still have about $200 worth of pomade to get through before I can justify that.

                                            I think she’s really coming into her own as a stylist though.
