Last night.
This rig we saw this morning might be homemade…
I like the solar power setup.
A close-up of a sphinx moth. Really, they’re not huge, I just wanted to show the detail.
They can be seen in the evenings hoovering over flowers like tiny hummingbirds.
And we’re off to the KOA in Albuquerque.
For showers, laundry, and a little more evening light.
And now we are out of Texas!
Morning light.
Across the arid cropland of the Texas Panhandle.
A thriving desert willow at a small highway rest area in New Mexico.
To Bottomless Lakes State Park.
Limestone sinkhole lakes as much as 90 feet deep.
One big lake for recreating.
Many smaller lakes that are left in their natural state.
Our site for the night.
A quiet comfortable spot for morning coffee.
Particularly quiet and comfortable for Jesse for her after breakfast snooze.
A rainy drive all day. It just started clearing up when we arrived at our camp for the night.
Another good day.
At it again. But for real this time. We have a departure date for the trip. Today. We don’t have a return date. In round numbers we’ll be out for two or three months, but we’re set up to continue as long as we want.
We mean to stop at as many places as we can that we haven’t been to before. Tonight, Guadalupe River State Park. Been here before, but haven’t spent the night until tonight.
