Midland to Alpine to Big Bend National Park - August 2025
From August 12th to 15th we (Chris, Sophie and Martin) made a fun trip to visit Karl, Karen, Tim & Timothy near San Angelo; Alice and Carl Williams in Midland and Jackie and Bruce Carter also in Midland. We then spent a day in Alpine and travelled to the Big Bend Park.
Sophie's ready to go!
