We ran into some rain outside Junction but it was really light and not too much bother - surprisingly, the temperature at 11:00 AM when we stopped to let the Boys do their business was only 74 degrees!! BURRRR!! HA!
We made it to Fort Stockton around 2:00 PM. The rain had gone away and it was sunny and in the 90s - guess we're still in Texas after all.
Finally off I10 and headed north towards New Mexico. Made it out of Texas around 4:00 PM - doing pretty good on time.
Hit Roswell around 5:15 and in the park and set up by 5:45. Looking like it could possibly storm here tonight so we'll maybe see how the Toad handles weather:)
Not many pics today - the landscape is nothing to write home about. For example:
The Boys did seem to finally settle in for the ride - only after about 100 miles!!
Here they are early on - Sitting up and watching the road:
Here they are after 300 miles - zoning out:
Tomorrow we ride for UTAH! Although we still have quite a bit of New Mexico to go through and then we are skirting the southwest corner of Colorado before entering Utah - we are hopeful tomorrow will be much more scenic.
Tonight - we'll be on the lookout for aliens - we'll post pics if we see any:)
Total Miles Today: 492
Miles to Go: 1695.5 (!!)
Hurrah! You made it out of Texas finally ;) I'll bet the boys were ready to get out of the truck for a longer period of time than just a potty break. They sound like real troopers!! Of course, they couldn't do it without the pilot and navigator at the controls!
