Sam Nail Ranch, Big Bend National Park
On our way to Castolon and Santa Elena Canyon, we encountered exhibits on two large ranches in the Big Bend that were founded between 1909 and 1929. Known as the “Sam Nail Ranch” and the “Homer Willson Ranch” (ne. Blue Creek Ranch), they varied in size from 15,000 to 28,000 acres. Both were occupied until the 1940’s , and later incorporated into the Big Bend National Park. The Homer Wilson ranch was one of the largest ranches in the United States, and the most significant one in the Big Bend Area. Read the entire article at

Big Bend National Park
We visited the Big Bend National Park on 26th August of 2017, when the devastating Harvey hurricane hit Southeast Texas. We thought it's would be best to leave the city and move west. The gamble paid off and we had one of our best travel experience. Its one of the best National Park in US and we can't wait to go back again.
Big Bend is one of the most underrated and least visited National Park in the United States. Situated in Southwest Texas, this magnificent national park includes the entire Chisos mountain range and a part of Chihuahuan desert. The Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive leads to the ruins of Sam Nail Ranch, now home to desert wildlife. The Santa Elena Canyon, carved by the Rio Grande, features steep limestone cliffs. Langford Hot Springs, near the Mexican border, has pictographs and the foundations of an old bathhouse. Also, Big Bend is one of the true jewels for paleontological research in the world. Unique among U.S. National Parks, Big Bend exhibits dinosaur remains from the last 35 million years of the dinosaurs' existence. Furthermore, the fossil record here continues uninterrupted from the Age of Reptiles into the Age of Mammals. Over 90 dinosaur species, nearly 100 plant species, and more than two dozen fish, frogs, salamanders, turtles, crocodiles, lizards, and even early mammals have been discovered here.

GoPro Hero Test Video (Grapevine Hills Trail, Big Bend National Park)
Recently got a GoPro Hero (2014) and took it with me on a trip to Big Bend National Park.
This footage was taken from a hike me and my father did.
The lesson I learned from initially using this GoPro is that the default, waterproof housing makes audio sound awful.
I tried to upload this video with some of my favorite Chet Atkins' tunes but YouTube stopped that pretty quick :) ....
Feedback is greatly appreciated!

34 family members arrested in drug bust; $400k in cocaine seized
ELYRIA, Ohio - Elyria Police, Lorain Police and the Lorain County Sheriff's Department arrested 34 people—all related to each other in some way—in connection with $400,000 of cocaine seized.
The investigation started last year and ramped up in the past two months, culminating in the arrests Friday, March 13 and Monday, March 16, investigators said during a press conference Wednesday.
Authorities seized 3.4 kilos of cocaine, worth $400,000, five guns and $85,000 in cash.
The leaders of what's been dubbed the Burns, Milton and Tillman Drug Trafficking Organization by authorities are Jarvis Burns, 33, of Sheffield Lake, who paid for the cocaine, and his cousin Travis Milton, 32, of Elyria, who orchestrated large-scale buys from two dealers in Cleveland.
The large-scale transactions were at Burns' and Milton's grandmother Grace Milton's home on Tattersal Court in Elyria.
They bought $43,000 of cocaine from Christopher Craig, 43 and Bernard Washington, 44, both of Cleveland, investigators said.
