 We are on our way to Red Rock Canyon via the riverbed.
 A view from where we came, mighty dusty, but the worst was yet to come.
 We have arrived at the edge of the lake where it used to be.  The view in the distance shows what is left of the lake.
 Ahead is Red Rock Canyon.  The land goes from a beige to red in an instant.
 We have arrived at the area where the dirt and rocks are now red.
 We are beginning the ride through the wash.  It is probably 3 or so miles long.
 A shoot off the main wash is this side wash.  We walked about .6 miles to its beginning in another wash.  Here we are showing our strength while we celebrate our 21 anniversary.
 Farther into that wash the sides of the canyon narrow.  Notice the path at the bottom.
 Here a desert donkey has scratched for some water farther into the wash.
 A honey comb with bees flying around, we are still in that side wash.
 A view from the other side of the lake from ground level. A few boaters fish for supper on a daily basis.
 Three desert donkeys in the distance.  Two are center and the third on the right in the center.
A view of Alamo Lake as we leave Red Rock Canyon.  It was another spectacular ride.
