         Big Bend is a land of strong beauty — often savage and always imposing. It is magnificent. The bold mountains rear

abruptly against the endless blue sky with traceries of white clouds. The “Long Look” never fades. The enticing view

to the horizon ends in a haze of gray or blue or brown as the sky eats up the land. The land disappears but the sky

is still there, the forever edge of the world that is always inviting.

-Lon Garrison, 1983

(served as the second superintendent, 1952-1955)
