Big Bend National Park

With all the upheaval that the Coronavirus is causing we thought that people would be canceling their camping trips and we would have an easy time finding a campground.  That is not the case although we were smart enough to arrive in the morning and snagged one of only three available walk-in sites at the Rio Grande Village Campground.  We were also concerned that the park would close but they have only closed the visitor centers and gathering places. And along our route we stopped at every market looking for TP.  We finally found one roll!


The wind has been horrendous and the sun quite hot but the walk to Boquillas Canyon on the Rio Grande was still nice.  We also checked out the hot spring that is on the river. It was very crowded.  Social distancing was not being practiced in that place.
