PECOS TO DEL RIO-Part 2.











1. A limestone cave near Langtry TX. It is inaccessible and 300 ft. up in the air. On April 25,1875 Lt. John Bullis fought some Black Seminole Scouts near there.
2.&3. The Pecos River...it's HUGE here compared to where we live...it's about 12 feet wide here in Pecos.
4. A cool lookout over the river.
5. Big bridge...I'm afraid of heights and this creeped me out.
6. River again.
7.&8. Back to Eagle Nest Creek AKA Eagle Creek Canyon near Langtry. This runs south for 5 miles to the mouth of the Rio Grande River. This place creeped me out also.
9. Another ol' high bridge.
Stay tuned for the story of Langtry and Judge Roy Bean.

Dear Mary,

More nice pics, thanks. I'm surprised everything is so green there. It is pretty scenery.

Love,
Dave
