Texas!

Today I am not posting a single road picture!  But that means a slightly shorter blog.

Actually it is shorter because while we did a lot of driving, our day was spent driving across Texas, which if you have ever been, is not much to look at.

We started our day in New Mexico and drove another stretch of Historic Route 66.  We took some pictures then moved on to Texas

Once in Texas we stopped at Famous Cadillac Ranch, where a rancher buried a row of cars.

  Imagine our surprise to find the Food Network there recording a show.  I am not sure which one, but I am sure someone knows.  Chris took pictures of some of their food trucks as a clue



We had taken Haru with us to visit the cars, but she was making too much noise for the set, so we left without seeing much.

Our last tourist stop was in Amarillo for the Cowboy Muffler Man
We were supposed to see a Helium tower of some type, but we got lost and had enough trouble finding the interstate again.

A few hours later we were back in our former home of Wichita Falls.  The purpose of our stop here was purely selfish for me.  I needed to see a good friend, Margaret.  She said it best when she said you know a friendship is true, when even after 6 years apart, you can sit down to dinner and laugh like you never left.
Tomorrow, another dear friend and the state of Oklahoma!  See you then

Ok, now I am jealous. I was fine until you started posting about seeing old friends :(
