Out in the Lower Pecos Canyonlands, time doesn’t move the way it does anywhere else.
The land holds on to things.
Footsteps. Marks on stone. Stories that don’t always stay where they happened.
In this chapter, I sit down with Ronnie Hart, a man who’s spent real time out in the canyons, spending time in places most people never see, learning the land one stretch at a time.
What he shares isn’t something you’ll find written down.
It’s what comes from being out there long enough, long enough to notice things and long enough for something to notice you back.
Out here in The V, the land holds on to its stories..as not all of them stay buried.
Have you ever dug shelters anywhere in Val Verde County, Texas? Want to share your story? I’d love to hear from you. Reach out to me through my Facebook page @Ancient Whispers of the Lower Pecos Canyonlands and be part of this project or let me know what you think of this podcast or the other stories found @ TheV.Alitu.com. I appreciate you, the worldwide listeners!
Special thanks to Mr. Ronnie Hart for sharing his experiences as well as Kerri for her awesome haunting canyon flute music.
I hope you enjoy and stay tuned for Chapter 3!
