OTHER ROADSIDE ATTRACTIONS


Many of the plants in the southwest are amazing. One in particular is the Sotol. It grows clumps of slender evergreen leaf blades with margins bordered by fine hooked teeth that angle toward the leaf tips, making the leaves look much like a double-edged saw. You certainly don't want to fall into one of these plants. But they are beautiful and colorful. You can see these all along the roads. But be sure to watch out for the Gigantus  Roadrunnerous. Run very fast if you happen to meet him on a trail!
