   Where you can visit two National Parks within   
   an hour's drive of each other?   
   That the highest point in the state of Texas   
   just barely makes it into the state?   
   Or that the highest point in Texas was once   
   a reef in an ancient ocean?   
      
   Here's a fun read for those who have an interest.   
      
   Tales of the Guadalupe Mountains, by W.C. Jameson   
   Republic of Texas Press, 1996   
      
   The author is a good writer and the book is   
   a mix of myth, history and fact that "paints" a good   
   picture of what to expect in this extremely   
   rugged region.
