This morning we are taking a tour of the
Fate Bell Shelter in Seminole Canyon, Comstock Texas
Early morning visitors
Maker of Peace
Fate Bell Shelter
We hiked down into the canyon about 250 feet
Pictographs or drawings made by the indigenous
people living here 2,000 to 8,000 years ago
The cat like figure with a long tail is depicted in several drawings
Stick like people with long spears
The figure in the center is the Maker of the Peace
This area was an ancient sea bed.
Abundant fossils have been found.
Leaving the canyon we pass over Pecos River
The dirt road along the highway is used by the
Border Patrol. We saw their trucks pulling large tires
behind, clearing any tracks that might have been left??
Some areas have barbed wire topped fences.
Boarder Patrol coming at you...
Border Patrol waiting and watching....
Long freight train traveling along the canyon
Another Border Check Point
Hey this one we can drive straight through very, very slowly!
Big Bend National Park
Tunnel getting to the campground
Wow, are we there yet ?
97 miles in- hope they have a spot left for us-
It's 95 dry degrees and I really would like electricity!
Lucked out again-last spot-IT'S MINE
Boquillas Canyon on Mexican Border
Donkey that brought its owner over to the
