We left town for a few days between Christmas and New Years. We looped through Midland to White Sands, New Mexico, then on to the small towns of Marfa and Alpine.
A real live tumbleweed in Midland!
Frolicking in the beautiful White Sands of New Mexico.
A cat friend in Marfa.
Taking in the sites in Alpine, Texas, sort of near Big Bend.
A mesa on the way back to Austin! I guess there’s a reason I learned about them in elementary school geography class.
It was a relaxing way to end a busy year. I want to keep up the momentum in 2013!
