Here are some shots from our Day 2 trip from Vega, Texas to Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Every day has a beginning, this is ours for day 2:
Texas west of Amarillo is FLAT .. see for miles kinda flat:
As we approached New Mexico the landscape started to have more features:
This is a Texas style rest stop:
Seriously, one thing we’ve noticed is the rest stops are very few along our route. I’m used to the full service rest stops every 100 miles or so along I65 and I75. They are very fond of ‘picnic areas’ which are just pull offs with picnic tables and trash cans. The a few of the rest tops that did exist were closed.
We leave Texas and enter New Mexico:
A good time for a potty break, but its not to be:
Our first big mountain type feature (sorry for the fuzziness, it was way off and the car windows are good at bug collection):
The highway goes on and on and on ……
There are a lot of mobile homes out here .. i don’t think tornadoes are much of a problem:
That’s it for now .. Sarah is done eating breakfast (the Vegacado at the Flying Star Cafe) and its time to head out. Rock trees (the Petrified Forest) here we come!
