The word for 2012 is Peaceful. We at Mike Lambert Life Photography will be traveling the roads of Texas looking for pictures that tell a story of PEACE. Peaceful defined by merriam-webster.com is:
- untroubled by conflict, agitation, or commotion
- of or relating to a state or time of peace
- devoid of violence or force
- not argumentative, quarrelsome, or hostile
We ended 2011 with a road trip through the Big Bend Area of Texas. If you have never taken a trip to that area it is so worth it.
1250 miles of Texas Roadways brought peace to the end of our year and renewed us to begin 2012 with anticipation of the Good that will come with a new year.
The first leg of the Journey included a night's stay in Del Rio.Our trip led us through Marathon and a visit to Eve's Garden Bed and Breakfast. We will tell you more about this adventure on another blog post later. Next we went to Big Bend National Park. A night's stay in Terlingua's Ghost Town and a Meal at the Starlight Theater where we ate some of the best Chili we ever had and Chicken Fried Antelope.
After leaving Terlingua we drove through Big Bend Ranch State Park. According to the Park Rangers , the River Road is one of the most scenic drives in the Nation according to National Geographic. We have to agree. It was well worth the trip to drive this 50 miles of road from Lajitas to Presidio. AMAZING!!! MAJESTIC!!! were 2 words that kept coming to mind.
After leaving the park we drove the long way back to Del Rio through Marfa, Alpine, and Marathon. Spending the night in Del Rio, we made it back to Cedar Park to spend a day at rest before New Year's Eve.
Here are Mike's TOP TEN pictures from the trip. ENJOY!!!
We pray that each of you has a PEACEFUL 2012!!!
