Hola ~ I hope everyone is having a great Labor Day weekend! If you are spending it here in the Big Bend National Park area I know you are enjoying our weather so cool these past few days ~ and scattered with rains! This is one of my favourite times of the year here in Big Bend ~ when Fall is on the wake of Summer. After a chili-pepper hot summer these days are a like a Dairy Queen Icecream Treat!

Here is the next entry in Peter's Diary (and please refer to September 3, 2009 post if you'd like to read it from the start as well as an explanation back of it)

1945 Diary Entry by Peter Koch

Sat March 31 -

Cloudy - Rain
Hail

Rain began early this a.m. - and continued thruout the day - intermittant rain - hail. In a very short time the ground was soggy and the loose rocks began shifting when walked upon - the dust that has been so heavy during the last few days finally settled and now the scenery is once again clear and bright -

End of this day's diary post.

I've finished my painting of Santa Elena Canyon with the vaqueros crossing the Rio Grande ~ and will try and post a photo of it later today or tomorrow ~ please check back if you'd like to see it!

Have fun today!! RoMy
