Too many miles in one day?

West Texas.........

And more of West Texas..............640 miles of this~~~Silver City, NM to Kerrville, TX

March 20th

Yesterday and today were travel days....Left Silver City, NM and just wanted to get through Texas, so we drove all day Friday, approximately 640 miles. If you've ever been through West Texas, you'll know why we just drove straight through. We stayed in Kerrville, TX, which seems to be the point Texas turns beautiful. Great little town. When we got gas at the Kerrville Country Store for gas, we were delighted to find they also had homemade breakfast tacos, yummy. Southern Hospitality is still alive. We stayed at a Walmart with quite a few other motorhomers. In the middle of the night we were woken by a tremendous rain, thunder and lightening storm. Saturday we just drove straight to Beaumont through driving wind and rain. It was about 40 degrees all day.

From Arizona on, it's been so nice to see such clean, manicured freeways, sad CA freeways aren't like that anymore.

Funny little side bar: With Bill being sick last week, we decided to try something we heard about for coughs. Rub Vicks Vapo Rub on the bottom of your feet before bed, cover with socks, and yes, it's true, it controls your cough, Bill was cough free all night, aaahhhhh.
