Fort Davis - Marathon & Sanderson Texas

Internet access has been spotty.  So, I will try to catch up.  Yesterday I had the opportunity to tour Fort Davis.  Very interesting historical site.  If you are interested, check out the history of this man, Henry Flipper. He was the first African-American to graduate from West Point after the  Civil War.  The fort was also home to the Buffalo Soldiers.  Impressive history. Here are some photos:

 Here are some photos of my stay in Marathon, Tx.   The bikes spent the night in an abandon chicken barn.
