Sunrise on the Backbone

Sometimes the "early bird" gets more than just "worms"...

Driving Devil's Backbone from Fredericksburg to Gruene, Tx. The sun rising, the sky waking in the pinking light of a January morning. Clouds spill over the road and fill the canyons... we stood on the hill top at the scenic rest stop... looking down at the clouds.


"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” 
- Mark Twain 


“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.”
- Marcel Proust
