On the road again!

I had to add one more.

Say! That's the United Counties of Texas, isn't it!

On my way home I was on River Road near Presidio when the winds kicked in. I was going to cross back into Mexico to take more pictures but the dust storms were too bad. Even the Alter Servers were blown away by it.


I headed up US 67 from Presidio to Hwy 17. Between Marfa and Fort Davis I had tumbleweeds chasing me the whole time. Some big and some small. I was going 70 and they weren't much slower. After Mcdonald Observatory I had a very nice ride on Hwy 118 toward Van Horn then the temperature dropped in the 50s and the winds changed directions. I headed into New Mexico (because I could ), and as I got back into Texas we were detoured due to the huge grass fires that were raging across I 20 near Big Springs and it happened again near Colorodo City Tx. I ended up getting home at 1:30 Monday morning.

40mph Cross Winds, Swerving Trucks & Vans, Dust, Homicidal Tumbleweeds, Smoke, Fire, and Light Rain made for quite an adventure Sunday.

Thanks Brad and Jack for being open to coming out there. I had a blast!

Here's a group photos at Peguis Canyon in Mexico and a sunset over Terlingua.

You might even see SuperDave about to jump the canyon on his Super Bike!

"On the road again" by Jack Kerouac, was a book that affected me a whole lot back in the late 50s. I even had a copy of the first edition in very good condition. Somebody stole it from me. That was my retirement plan, so I am still working at (almost) 70.

Then the late blooming hippies came along. I was already a "bit old" by then, but I did enjoy the young women in SF.
