Just returned from a painting trip to the Fort Davis Mountains.   Highly recommend as a good getaway...your cell phone will not work.  Lots of wonderful vistas and barns...and street scenes in Fort Davis (downtown area). 
I did this 8 x 10 from Highway 118 on a sunny, but rather cool morning. 
This painting trip ended with a beautiful snowfall and brisk temperatures of 22 degrees.  A full day of driving....snow and sleet....wow! Texas weather!
