Driving down to Chisos Basin too was the same thing. Long line of people waiting because there were way too many cars down in the Basin. So, it was one car out, one car in. We stood in line for like 30 minutes before being allowed to drive down into the Basin. Beautiful drive as usual. I will...
Last Day at Big Bend. Drove around and visited some more places while stopping a lot for some memorable pictures. Took a few videos too that I will see of I can post some time if I get to it.
Went offroading to the Hot Springs trail which was packed and full of people. The parking lot was...
Yesterday we drove today from Big Bend State Park to Presidio. Then made an impromptu decision to drive across the border into Mexico using the Presidio border crossing for the first time. We went to look around and eat. We didn't do much of looking but found a restaurant and was impressed with...
We went and hiked Santa Elena Canyon today. There was a long traffic to get into the park today. Also, a long traffic at Santa Elena Canyon to get a parking spot. Park Rangers were doing a great job controlling the flow of traffic to avoid congestion at the Santa Elena Canyon Trail parking lot...
I saw this small airport which offers air tours around the Big Bend Area and went in to look at the planes. It was very interesting to see their runway is a dirt road. I just looked around, took some pics and was on my way.
Another nice day at Big Bend National Park. Sharing some pictures from today.
Welcome to Terlingua Ghost Town
I drove by this and I liked how colorful it looked and I just had to take a picture of it.
Terlingua Historic Cemetry. This is a very popular attraction here in Terlingua and tons of...
I was curious if I can take my drone and cross the border into Boquillas and fly there. I got my answer from both the US side and the Mexican side and this is the answer.
You can fly your drone there in Boquillas if you ask nicely, but you cannot fly your drone on the US side since it is the...
Boquillas Crossing Port of Entry
The Border Patrol gave us a little run down of everything to expect while over there and we were on our way. We borded the little boat and paid $5 a person for the round-trip. Then paid $10 each for a round-trip ride in a F150 to town to eat at Jose Falcon...
Very long and tiring drive last night. I got to Fort Stockton and saw an interesting looking Honda Civic. When the driver came out I asked him about his car and he said he uses it to chase storms. The car was very unique looking like something from a sci-fi movie. He told me more about his car...

Hello Frank. Good question. I think I had asked one store that same question and the response I got was that they do not know. That they get only the green colored ones.
I remember asking at just one store. Maybe if I go again, I will ask at many other stores.
Ok, I will keep you updated. No...
I finally sold all my 9 Jerry Cans.
Buyer contacted me from Arkansas and asked to buy 4. I had only 3 left. He said he would take it if shipping was within reason.
I got a quote from FedEx and buyer was ok with it. So, he was very kind to send an immediate payment and I packaged and shipped it...
Yes, I am willing to ship at buyer's expense. I do not know 100% what shipping will cost until I take it to FedEx. But please send me your zip code and I can give you a ballpark guess based on measurements I know and have so far.
I will tell you about my shipping to California. I gave the...
These are the only 3 I have left. I have sold 6 already. I have them listed on my local craigslist and I also have it listed on ebay with local pickup only.
Buyer from California saw my ad and emailed me on ebay and we did the sale off ebay. He paid for shipping. Too bad shipping was too...
No idea, to be honest. I have never even opened any of these Jerry cans to look inside it since I bought them. Even the ones I bought before this. I habe never opened them before.
I am at work now. Maybe when I get home I will open one of them and take the pictures and maybe post. You can check...
I brought 9 of these Scepter Jerry cans from Canada. I have sold 6 so far.
I just mailed these today. 2 to California and 2 Oklahoma. Shipping was very expensive at FedEx. But buyer from California was nice enough to pay for the high cost of shipping to him. Oklahoma was not so bad. Buyer paid...
