Big Bend at (almost) night




It was sweet having a full moon while we were there. It was brighter outside than it was in the tent with a lantern. There was an Italian named Bruno who had a crazy big telescope hooked up to his laptop. He had it out every night to watch the stars. I have never seen the moon so close as I did through his telescope. It was amazing and has inspired us to try to find a San Anotnio Astronomy club!

Those are really nice pictures - what a sight. Do they have a nearby motel I could see this view from or is camping the only way? Alas, I may never see these beautiful sights if I have to camp. :)
