El Paso Mounain View

This lovely Franklin Mountain Range, whether illuminated by the morning sun or ablaze with color at sunset, is clearly visible from the Fort Bliss RV Park. After getting back to El Paso, we headed to the Franklin Mountians State Park. After hiking some seriously steep trails, we left the park determined to come back later in order to picnic and sit in a shady shelter to read and bask in the warm afternoon breezes. The gate guard encouraged us to also visit another park, Hueco Tanks Historical Site, which we will explore.
