Today, pictures from valued commenter Albatrossity. The topic of visiting Palo Duro Canyon in the TX Panhandle came up in the comment thread of a recent “On the Road” post, so I thought I would post some pics that I took there last December. We were on our way back from a first-time visit to Big Bend, and took a detour to show some friends this unexpected jewel in a part of the country that gets very few visitors.
