El Despoblado. Where the rainbow waits for the rain. Very high on my list of
favorite spots on the planet. Back in the ‘80s, went every March for a week or
two. Some of the best camping trips of my life. Haven’t been back in, what, 18
years.
If I didn’t have First Grandchild coming this month, I’d be down there with the
campsite set up and coffee brewing and beer chilling when you folks arrived.
Side note: I used to write columns on my Big Bend trips when I got back to work
at the newspaper in North Carolina. Got a phone call after the first one. Old
man. Retired park ranger. The _first_ and for a while the only ranger at Big
Bend. Called him the Lone Ranger. Nice guy.
