Howdy~doooooooo from New Mexicooooooo! 
I am in my sweet Hampton Inn hotel room (I like to call it my home in the Hamptons.....because I'm a snob like that!) and have ordered a pizza! I am tired. I took my bra off. I'm not goin' anywhere ELSE tonight!
Let's see......where shall I begin?
Did I tell You that last night's hotel really sucked air? Yes. It did.
But they topped it off this morning when the alarm didn't go off.
I rose at PROMTLY 10:38. Not the 8:30 I had in mind, huh?
I was out the hotel door by 11:30 and on the road. Before I left town, I took a lovely phallic shot of a spire of some church close to the hotel. If You're on FB, go see in a few minutes.....I'll be posting. It made me lonely. .gif)
Then I was off. Let me just tell You something.....You KNOW Texas is big, right?
It took me 8 1/2 hours to get to El Paso. With one stop for petrol, ladies and gentlemen. Yes. I know.
The scenery was what You might envision in an old cowboy movie.....scrub brush and mesquite as far as the eye could see. When I got to Ft. Stockton, however, the earth began to rise up! MOUNTAINS!!! Nobody ever thinks there are mountains in Texas. And granted, they're not like the Rockies, ok? So don't get Yourselves in a snit. But they're OUR mountains. And it was refreshing....Davis Mountains.....Apache Mountains....and a couple other ranges....it was neat.
El Paso drew near. It was dismal and sad to me. I wanted to go look at the wall, but I was tired, and it would just have made me sadder, I think. I saw the Rio Grande River for about a second. It's SO dry down here....there were sand spouts around every corner.
And that's about IT, kids! I'm tellin' Ya.....not so much happened today!
OH! Since I have my new phone/service......I have HAD phone service almost the entire way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT makes me VERY happy!
Happy what day IS this? Tuesday? Ok....yeah...have a great day!
Tomorrow? SEDONA, AZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
