Travelled from Arizona through New Mexico and ended up here in Fort Stockton. On the way we passed through cotton fields and one beautiful, desolate view after another as we drove down US 70 to I-10. Hit I-10 at Lordsburg, NM and crossed the continental divide (but it's not in a mountainous area as it is in other locations). From Las Cruces, NM to El Paso, TX, we passed several huge stockyards (even if we couldn't see them, we could sure smell them).
Hit El Paso a little after noon, gassed up at Costco and then headed cross-country to Fort Stockton. It's mostly flat prairie land with some mesas in the distance. Lost another hour as now we are in the Central Standard time zone. Tomorrow we head to San Antonio and see if we can play golf there. Weather is cool and clear, but we're hoping for warmer weather tomorrow.
