[QUOTE="Tony Eeds, post: 1320501, member: 32023"] So, where was I? We were flying west on SH170, lunch was in front of us and traffic was nil. Lajitas began to peek over the top of the hills. The Warnock Visitor’s Center for Big Bend Ranch State Park appeared to have a little activity. The balance of the town appeared tired and new all at the same time. The image of tired older lady of pleasure comes to mind. You know ... all dolled up, trying to hide the wrinkles and nowhere to go and even fewer folks to do it with! As I said in an earlier post, the desert is a harsh mistress, as Steve and many thousands of Steve’s before him have found out. Nothing strips the varnish off a dream quite as effectively as the desert does. In the harsh light of morning, nothing hides. Nothing ... I reflected on these thoughts and the many more racing through my brain as I headed towards lunch. It has been a difficult year, but I feel that I am over the hump. Time will tell, time will tell. So, where is the Rock House? For those following along in their mind’s eye, having experienced the River Road in the saddle of a bike, the Rock House in the only building sandwiched between the road and the river before the stage set. On a bluff overlooking the river, the rock house has become a traditional lunch site for Sunday lunch. In fact many people lollygag as will be evidenced by the photos and this is where they end their ride. A short jaunt along SH170 back to their hotel and away they go, back to civilization. But first, a little slice of heaven! Fajitas at the Rock House!!!! We arrive to see a curious site ... no, not Santa Claus, his reindeer and sleigh ...

Cool! ... let’s check out the house and see who is here. [img]http://teeds.smugmug.com/photos/419211240_EaDxp-M.jpg[/img] Well, because of El P taking a nap like she did, we are near the end of the lunch, after the rush if you will. Now this is meaningless because the food flows until the last of the sweep riders have had their fill! [img]http://teeds.smugmug.com/photos/419213216_WQJQH-M.jpg[/img] Matt and Mark got groceries and dug in while I wondered around a bit. Keith had waited on us and we began the process of hatching a plan for the afternoon, but more on that in a bit. [img]http://teeds.smugmug.com/photos/419211906_Bm2y7-M.jpg[/img] Now, I am not going to show you photos of the meal because you need to pay the toll and check out the groceries yourself! Here is the view they were pondering while they ate. [img]http://teeds.smugmug.com/photos/419212092_UJnHK-M.jpg[/img] That is Mexico on the left, Texas on the right. [/QUOTE]
