Another travel day. The dogs are getting used to stopping along the roads and having new sniffies each time we stop. Millie doesn’t give it a thought, but KatieBug pulls hard in the direction of the RV when she is finished with her business. We chose Highway 90 for most of the way to El Paso. Now I know why they put up fences on the road sides. I have not seen that many tumble weeds since watching that spooky episode of, I believe it was the Twilight Zone. Of course we were again near Mexico and we passed by some strange sights along the way. A blimp in the middle of nowhere that was part of the U.S. Air Force at Marfa. Old decrepit buildings that looked like they were left over from a nuclear testing site and with the walls ripped open, you can see that they really are made from adobe. I’ve never seen so many trucks moving along so fast both coming at us and moving away.
When we arrived in El Paso at our RV park, it was a big gravel parking lot with nice wide and long spaces. Not exactly the hotel atmosphere I would have chosen had we just come for vacation but fine for two nights. The wind blows hard here so we had to slide in our long kitchen area… but there is still plenty of room. Another “real life” day of shopping, finding a welder to fix Ribbit’s tow chain connection, getting laundry done and planning our menu for the rally next week.
The internet is so slow. Loading pictures takes forever. I’ve got to admit…I’m not as patient as I used to be. Oh, wait a minute…I was never patient. Guess that’s something I’ll have to work on sometime in the future.
