Along a Texas Highway (with bug splat).Welcome to the RockingA RV Park in Vernon, TX. Never heard of it, huh? Well now you have! A bit less progress on the trip today than expected due to starting a bit late but a very nice trip so far. We made one wrong turn before we even got out of Houston but it was a simple recovery of only a few minutes and everything went pretty much as expected otherwise. We encountered some very heavy traffic in Houston and Fort Worth, further delaying our progress, but the majority of our travels saw us at or near the speed limit. Most of the trip we saw lots of trees flowers along the roadside (will include some pictures when we make an earlier stop) but for the last couple of hourse the lanscape has been mostly flat and barren with the only diversions being fields of oil pumps dotted here and there. Thanks to a contribution from Rico (actually Eric - more on him and his family later), we had a CD player that could be plugged into the Rig's cassette player and we had some nice music to enjoy as we enjoyed the varying scenery (and sat in bumper to bumber traffic). Tomorrow we should arrive in Amarillo rather early in the day and expect to cover the rest of TX and most, if not all of New Mexico. Not a lot of photos to share at the moment but will let you know when more are posted at the Kodak site.

Glad to hear you guys are really enjoying the awesome scenery! I never enjoyed Texas either. I am looking forward to your pictures of the crater! Hope you got there today, or tomorrow at the latest. Enjoy your time. You are both so lucky to be able to spend time cruising the countryside together. Definitely an adventure Jeff and I would like to do when we retire. Have fun!! Tracy and Jeff
