This picture was taken along the coast at Maruata. I needed to include some incredible scenery, though not of the Devil's Backbone. THAT will have to wait!
We're settled in at Durango tonight after an exciting drive up the Devil's Backbone. The scenery WAS spectacular . . . especially from the passenger's window! Going UP the backbone means we were on the OUTSIDE edge of the road! We buddied up for a while with a group of trucks. The drivers must have been talking on their CB's because oncoming traffic would wait until our caravan would get around a tough curve. They took turns! I'm glad we took the trip on Sunday when most of the drivers were home with their families!
Tomorrow, we'll head to Hidalgo de Parral, the town where Pancho Villa was murdered. 30,000 people attended his funeral. It's interesting getting the Mexican perpective on history!
