I Can See Mexico

If you ever go to Big Bend National Park, do not miss Santa Elena Canyon. We hiked in for about a mile beneath towering cliffs on either side of the Rio Grande. If it were safe (and legal) I would have waded over to the Mexican side just so I could say I'd been there. As it was I was content to dip my toes into cool and refreshing U.S. waters and to bounce my voice internationally back and forth between the rock walls.

Although I've only left the United States once (to Canada in 2015), this is the farthest south I've been in my life so far.
