April 10 – Driving west from Del Rio, Texas, we drove across highest bridge in Texas, spanning the Pecos River. Once across the Pecos we were officially in the Wild West of legend.
Yucca plants bloom everywhere we go. We spent the night in the high desert town of Marathon, Texas and I was able to get up close and personal. There are so many varieties of Yucca that I cannot be sure which one this is, but the leaves are like daggers — you definitely don’t want to get too close.
