Texas -- Always On My Mind

On our way back from Big Bend and Davis Mountains, we stopped by Del Rio, Mexican city Cuidad Acuna (which is across the Rio Grande from Del Rio) and Cavern of Sonora. As the journey came to an end, we stopped at Fredericksburg, a lovely little town at the heart of the Hill Country. This marks the end of my vacation and also the end of this presentation, I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did, although I know that in order to fully enjoy the beauty and diversity of Texas, you really got to go out there yourself!
