Butch Hancock is a sort of philosopher-in-residence. He is one of the founders of the band the Flatlanders and he now lives near the Mexican border just outside Big Bend National Park in Texas. When he's home he moonlights as a river guide. Weekend America's Michael May took a ride along the Rio Grande with Hancock.

    Hi I wanted to find out about the "bon fire in Bend" but I don't have audio capacity at work. So went to the websites to find out more, neither of the two links Hankcocks and Flanders worked. Thought I would let you know...
