Whoever said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder must have been from West Texas. For those of us who live in the region, plants like the " Green Stool" are a part of our everyday scenery. For others the open ranges, and the heat resistant plants provide a look back into the fabled Old West.
One can imagine the outlaws riding, hell-bent for the Mexico border with the "law" hot on their heels. Thankfully, that isn't the case much anymore. One has the time to stop and smell the roses...well not many roses to be found and I'm not so sure you should be smelling too much out here. However, I do encourage you to snap a picture or two if you happen to be in the area. Just watch your step. you may wind up with a foot full of thorns or worse, a bite from a local snake.
I took this picture less than mile from my house here in Fort Stockton, Texas as the sun was beginning to set. I'll let you be the judge if it is beauty or not, after all, you are the one beholding it.
