The Ridiculously Looooooooong Drive Through Texas aka Nine Hours We Will Never Get Back aka A Trip You Should Never Do In Your Lifetime

Here are some of the sights that Danny and I saw on our way from Denver to Dallas

Cows
Vast, yellowish fields
Alfalfa Hay (who even knew that was a thing?)
Cows
A few tractors on the highway
Montana License (Number) Plate (woo hoo - only 10 to go!)
Cows
A whole lotta sky
At least four different towns with more For Rent/Sale signs than actual inhabitant

Cows

A few abandoned trains

More than six towns with a population less than 300 – less than Micol’s graduating high school class

At least three billboards with the words “Jesus Saves” (Still not sure what they were selling)

Cows

About seven completely dried up rivers – maybe one of them had some water

Some more fields

A Subway with so many flies that Micol actually gagged, nearly vomited in her mouth, and ran out screaming, perhaps too loudly, that the place should be condemned

Some cowboys (you would think more, what with all the cows and all)

A few more Cows
And then, cows.
Now, I'm not trying to make some religious or ideological statement here, but do you think perhaps that God could have spread the love a little bit...and on a side note...there is such a thing as too many cows...it's just not natural.

More later...Next Stop: Dallas
