I am linking up with Oh, the places I've been @ Tablescaper and check out Gemma's Scenic Weekend And Friday Postcards
It has been awhile since I have done a travel post, I never really shared all of the sights we saw while visiting New Mexico and Texas.. These photos are from that trip and a stop at the Guadalupe Mountains National Park.
The Pinery trail is located behind the Pine Springs Visitor Center.
The Pinery trail has exhibits describing the vegetation of the Chihuahuan Desert.

The views of Guadalupe Mountains from the visitor center.
Driving along the National Park Highway we stopped and took a look at El Capitan from the opposite side.

The view of Guadalupe Peak and El Capitan. It is the 8th highest peak in Texas.

Not far from the pull out for El Capitan we stopped at this Lake Linda..The layers of blue were very pretty.
I hope you enjoyed my travel post. I wish everyone a safe and happy weekend.

The sky is so blue..
ReplyDeleteI've always been fascinated by desert views. And that lake is absolutely amazing.
ReplyDeleteHI Eileen, I'm sorry that we didn't get to the Guadalupe Mountains and El Capitan when I lived in Texas.... I'd love to see that area and have always read so much about it.
ReplyDeleteGreat set of photos.
Hugs,
Betsy
Hi Eileen,
ReplyDeleteThe mountains are stunning and crisp, i love how sharp the image is - great job! Thanks also for commenting on my blog A Big Island Life
Gorgeous images! Thanks for linking up today. I really appreciate you supporting this new endeavor! Happy Friday! - Walking On Travels
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such a neat place to visit!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! We made a quick stop here too from New Mexico to Texas. It was a great stop but we never made it to Linda Lake. It was such a pleasant surprise to see this National Park in the middle of nowhere.
ReplyDeleteI love the southwest...such great landscapes! Love these...
ReplyDeleteExquisite shots of exquisite scenery!
ReplyDeleteLovely blog too!
Such wide landscapes with the beautiful colours of the rock against the blue skies. I enjoyed sharing your trip.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. I wasn't expecting to see that much water in what I always thought of as a desert. We've been wondering how our travels will look once we move from Asia back to Texas. We've neve been over to see El Capitan, so perhaps its now on our wish list.
ReplyDeleteSo love those wonderful rocky landscapes. Gorgeous textures on the rocks. And the salt lake is stunning.
ReplyDeleteEl Capitan is very impressive from every side! You have a blue sky here to rival our Aussie blue skies. Wonderful photos Eileen, and lovely for me to visit a new part of the world.
