Oh, Texas!

After 5 days of travel, we made it to our final destination! And we've been busy researching in the desert ever since! We happen to be visiting Roswell, NM for a few days (yes, Area 51 ... woohoo ... aliens...), so I have internet connection!!!! Below are a few photos from our travels! (Check out Dancing Fish's blog for more photos!)

We finally make it to far west Texas!

It's HOT here (current record -- 111 degrees!)!

A beautiful desert sunrise!

Prickly Pear Cactus in the "front yard"!

A close-up of the "chalet".
(I may even show you the luxurious interior some day!)

One field site. It's in a gas field. That's some sort of plant in the background!

Second field site. Pretty canal, with shade! And swimming area (in far right corner).

Sunset in Big Bend National Park!

That's all I have for now! More details when I get home in just two short weeks!!
