Big Bend National Park, Texas: Goodbye Big Bend


Big Bend National Park, Texas. September 2017.


Goodbye to Big Bend National Park.

Goodbye, tarantula.

Goodbye, lubber.

Goodbye, vinegaroon.

Goodbye, beetles.

Goodbye, cactus wren.

Goodbye, fox and bear poop.

Goodbye, grasshoppers and ants.

Goodbye, walking sticks.

.... and about the bears. I am weary of letting a fear of bear (or mountain lion or large feral pig) encounters affect my enjoyment of hikes.

Something must change about this. The fear limits me.
