In February, Dan and I spent a weekend outside Big Bend National Park at Lajitas Resort.
The resort was cute (an old Calvary Outpost) and on an incredibly scenic drive along the Texas/Mexico border.
It was the slowest season for the resort, so we had run of the restaurant and ate everything exactly how we wanted it. Really...the chef didn't have anyone else to cook for!
We had a few meals out, including breakfast as this local cafe.
And including dinner at the Starlight Theatre with live music and surprisingly good food.
We really loved the scenic drives and stopped often to snap pictures.
We did not cross to river to step into Mexico.
Dan enjoyed golfing. He said playing the course was like playing a video game.
The course.
We loved Big Bend National Park and plan to go back again!
Don't fall!
The mountains behind us are in Mexico. It's mountains as far as the eye can see.
This canyon is especially cool (the left side is Mexico, the right is USA). You can tube the river in the spring when the dam is opened to let water flow. We really want to do it someday.

Big Bend is one of our favorite places too! Looks like things are going well in Midland!
