Nothing in this world is said to be certain, except for death & taxes.
And that is the very reason life is so fun.
Being alive does not guarantee you an enjoyable life on this earth, it just gives you the ability to make one... and I fully intend on doing so. So when I saw the chance to take a trip with two great friends to an incredible place, it was a no brainer.
Big Bend is several hours from any major city, and it's pretty much in the middle of nowhere. My friends Chris and Chandler were in Texas already, and I'd been wanting to go to Big Bend for a couple years... so we decided to dedicate our Memorial Day Weekend for the trip.
We camped and hiked through the desert, swam in the Rio Grande, and got to experience some incredibly beautiful sights for 3 days.
13 hours from home
1,943 miles driven
54 beers / 1 bottle of whiskey / 3 bottles of wine
a metric sh*t ton of water
a lot of meat & sandwiches
2 boxes of cheez-its
Endless thanks to the people who sacrificed their lives so we can make the most of ours.
