Leg 8 to Alpine

After one night in Marathon, we head to Alpine, a mere 30 miles down the highway.  We purchased tickets to the Spirits of the West which just so happens to coincide with our stay.  The Portillos will be driving up from Presidio to attend and we will spend some time visiting with them and enjoying the festivities.

Shortly after arriving we visited the Sul Ross Museum and walked the downtown area before checking out the festival.
