Outpost: The End of the Road

Soundtrack: new Calexico, old Lyle Lovett, Townes, Tom Russell.

Cast of characters: javelinas, bobcat, chatty great-horned owls, vermillion flycatcher, nightime braying donkey, helpful park volunteers, friendly park visitors, lots of prickly vegetation.

Setting: desert, river, mountains, a hot spring along the border, endless sunshine (except for the nightly 12 hours of moonlight), cold nights

Plot: apparently, blessedly, none.
