This is one of my husband's favorite songs. Reminds us of the importance of taking time along the journey called life to celebrate and have lots of gringo honeymoon experiences together! Here's to us!
@unrule If you had gone there before the border closed, you would think differently. It's such a shame what's happening in Mexico. It's such a beautiful country.
My wife and I have been together for 7 years and when I hear this song my guts still fill with butterflies...just as it did the first time I asked her out. Thank You REK. An absolutely great song!
I dated a girl whos parents were part owners of the steamboat springs ski resort. She gave me a brand new camaro to drive while I was doing Ironworking in Grand Junction and saw me racing it one night at the main strip and took it back,no sense of humor!!!
Boquillas Mexico. The first time I heard this song, I knew he was singing about Boquillas. They say the border may open there next year. I'm not sure I want it to, as we used to sneak across before 9-11....
Spent many days and nights in Boquillas. Sleeping outside. Looking at millions of stars. Awesome sight!. I was friends with Danny Hickle, the outlaw of Boquillas and subject of this song. 😀

Rich Brotherton is a great guitarist. Period.
This guy has class; proof in a great song where he tips his hat to Marty Robbins!
I once crossed the Rio Grande at Boquillas Crossing and drank beer in a bar in Boquillas del Carmen, Mexico. Never forget it.
Great songwriter/performer singing a timelessly great tune. Love REK
This really brings me back to West Texas, Big Bend National Park, and Boquillas Mexico. Best place in the world...

Who is the guitar player with those Grady Martin style chops?
REK is the man! If you've ever fallen or been in love in the majestic southwest, this is your jam.

No matter what year you hear him sing, from his early days to now, his voice is the same, a great talent!!
Sitting here with my almost 1 year old grand daughter listening to this song. She likes it. :)
@1cleetus spent a week in Grand Junction one day...that place kinda sucked.
What a great freaking song!
