- I pictured my May trip to Big Bend to be picturesque and peaceful but it wasn't really.
- I thought I'd see the Rio Grande in all its glory, but I mostly saw a lot of dry ground.
- Hiking in the heat was tough, and I eventually realized this national park is not for everyone.
When my fiancé said he had a few days off from work at the end of May, we quickly planned a trip to Big Bend National Park.
Summer was nearing, and I imagined the flowing waters of the Rio Grande against picturesque canyons, fields of desert cacti, and glorious mountain peaks meeting fresh blue Texas sky.
