Growing Up in Terlingua Texas with Marcus Pepper

The desert is a beautiful and dangerous place. Whispers of the Big Bend is a show dedicated to preserving the stories of the Big Bend area by providing oral histories from people who have experienced living in the Big Bend first hand. Marcus Pepper grew up in Terlingua Texas, where the nights are lit up by either the stars or the desert moon. Growing up in the Big Bend, every day is an adventure, from Chili Cookoffs to exploring the vastness of the desert landscape. Marcos explains why growing up in Terlingua is a true blessing.
