Ah Big Bend, we will soon return to reacquaint ourselves in our ritual of blood, exhaustion and dehydration. How can we resist the temptation to strip ourselves of the maladies of civilization?

OK.  How come when I go to click on the arrow to make the video play, the entire picture disappears?  This happens with both the sneezing panda and cattail falls videos.
Wake me when it's time to go.
