We are moving along.... Rick is tiring earlier each day.
The long ride through Texas can be really boring once we leave the bigger cities. I tried to take a bunch of photos to show the "nothing-ness" but unless they are in a slide show where we can see them one after another, they don't show it. Here are a couple though. I'll make some YouTube slide shows after we are home.
Here's something fun -- these Tee-Pees are a rest stop!
Driving through El Paso is always interesting. The freeway is just a few yards from the Mexican border. There is so much crime -- horrible drug wars -- going on the other side in Juarez, Mexico. Tijuana too, which is just across the border near San Diego where we live. Some of that crime is now coming into the USA in ways never imagined before. . . but that's for another day.
