Default One Benefit of West Texas? Top off sunset photo shoots in March!

What a beautiful day we had today in El Paso. Went for a happy hour beer on the west side with some friends after work, which coincidently had me driving over the mountain pass right at sunset. I just had to stop and snap some pics. They were taken with my phone because I didn't have my camera on me dangit, but they seemed to turn out pretty good!!



















I wish the stupid sign and guard rail weren't there, but I tried to take pictures that minimized their existence.

Great day, great drive. I LOVE VETTES!!!

I'm just trying to brag about the good weather in March here because in a month or so, you'll hear me on here bitching that it's a billion degrees!!

I'm just being a smart ***.

We also had great weather last week. 80 degrees and lots of top-off cruising.

Didn't even hit 50 today.

Your car looks great.

Not as hot as Texas. My buddy's dad lives in Austin and said no one goes outside in the daytime there.


We had a week or so of over 100 degrees last year. With the humidity it felt like 115. And I work in an auto shop without AC.

One benefit of living on the East coast is sunrises over the ocean.
