Travels

Here we are on day one of our ambitious road trip. So far so good ('cept for the food).

6/25 Getting the car and roof box all ready to go.

6/25 The lord and his master waiting for food.

6/25 Mr Roscoe having a picnic with us (as we were freezing) in Fairplay, Colorado.

6/25 I want this trike.

6/26 A small part of a big wind farm along a ridge in NM. These are such beautiful sculptures.

6/26 Northern Texas is flat and buggy!!!

6/27 The screened porch of the cabin in the woods we have for two nights. The place is called Decker Creek Bed, Breakfast and Biscuit. They tell the dogs they want their humans on the end of their leash if they take them out for a walk.

6/27 My birthday wine on the screened porch.

The trip has been great so far execpt I haven't eaten this much deep fried food ever - and we are just starting. It isn't easy to find healthy food when traveling especially in the south and the southwest when u can't eat spicy Mexican and I am afraid I am going to pass on the brisket in Austin. Maybe Mick can share a nibble with me.

We went to a tiny black restaurant in Manor, TX for dinner tonight and had a fantastic waiter. We had to try the fried catfish which I would have liked much more if I hadn't had so many fries already but the crunchy cornmeal dredged fish and fresh fries with season salt along with Texas toast was yummy. Don't these people ever eat veggies???

It is very hot and humid here but the breeze feels wonderful.
