December 30,2007-
Oh my!! They ALWAYS say "we'll be up and outa here by 3:00am- RIGHT-wrong-how about 7;00am!!! Oh well, no sweat off of me-I just hang out watching those two run around like crazy!!
You would think we would be gone another month!!
Ok, we are ON THE ROAD AGAIN!!! gOT Eric Clapton doing his Cream thing on the cd- and we are on I-20. Nope, gotta stop-get ice and OH no there they go again, jumpin' out clicking that little box agin-this is gonna take FOREVER!!!
Well, we've stopped in Abilene and God bless her, no chicken for breakfast-everyone is having a egg mcmuffin-miracles DO happen-roadtrips and McDonalds-that is my kinda good time.
I've settled back for the long ride-the music has changed to Peter Gabriel.....zzzzzzzzzz something about shocking a monkey....hmmm....wonder how a monkey would taste????...zzzzzzzzzz
Ok, something about oil wells, home of George W. (maybe that is some kind of jerky!!!)
We got off of I-20 and here come the Glass Mountains and the sky here is so blue and full of funny looking clouds. We are headed to Terlingua from Alpine, it is still light but the sun is falling fast. Barney has never taken pictures of the rocks in Big Bend using a digital so he is like going NUTS!!
Here we are-uncle T is waiting for us-what a paradise we have arrived at-beautiful foliage-newly planted pansies just waiting for me to hike my leg on!!!! And-WAIT-what is that scent??? And THAT one! Oh my I am in heaven!!! New things to smell over and over again!! and I am going right over and lay a nice little steamer on T's drive way!!
It is going to be a great trip!!!
