Meanest hombre west of the Pecos...

(That's a Yosemite Sam reference)

LONG driving day today, covering 500 miles with Big Red, the Love Shack, and the cargo trailer. 25 mph headwinds made for some lousy mpg. Down for the night at an Escapees Park west of the Pecos. Another day of driving and we'll be out of Texas. Uneventful, except for little Izzy dropping a "surprise" in the truck - a first. She was embarrassed, we were grossed out, but no harm done.

I once made a disparaging remark about west Texas and offended a gentleman on the C-Brats whose Grandfather homesteaded in the area... so, I just won't say anything besides: plenty of natural resources - they seem to have an endless supply of blowing dirt. More wind farms along I-20; might as well make use of that ever-present headwind.
