Thanks for the pics and the stories! Looks like it was a great trip!

I didn't see a rooftop tent on Larry's rig - how did he survive? That may be the only accessory that he's missing. Sorry Larry - just giving you a little friendly grief!

The subject actually came up. He slept in his truck.

Google Earth file attached. I did forget to turn on the GPS the last day, so a section is missing.

Hopefully the fellas took some good landscape pics as I don't seem to have much, only camp pics!

Great time guys! Thanks Ali for leading. Pappy now understand when Ali, Jessica and I are left unsupervised.

Hope this link works.

I would consider restarting the AZBDR before the monsoons start.

... and Dermatophyllum guadalupense is there as well.

Dang, you had me going to Google for that. Dang botanist always changing names of stuff.

Sophora, Dermatophyllum, cool plant nonetheless...

The Texas Sophora smells like grape soda. Unfortunately, it's a smell I can smell.

 

[Ctenosaurian]

Not a fan of grape? I've never seen guadalupense bloom, so no idea of scent.

I like the smell. My nose just doesn't detect it. I had a plant in the Conservatory early on that also smelled like grape soda. My staff said it was overpowering. I couldn't smell it, or just barely smell it.
