Big Bend Firsts

I've been going out to the Big Bend for something over thirty-seven years now. This last trip brought me some firsts, a collison with a mule deer ( en route) and a bite that put me in bed for about four days. The way things go though I was able to drive my truck for the rest of the trip ( doesnt usually turn out that way at all) and the bite didnt really give me any problems til I got home! I would have preferred to spend the four days in bed out under the stars of Brewster County
