Texas is hot, dry, and very, very different!  Haven't seen a pine tree in days.  Lots of trees look crippled.  One of the pictures below shows a little of that.  There are beautiful fields of wildflowers and lots of green, yellow and grey bushes!  Everyone we've met or spoken to has been very nice.  Southern… Continue reading 04.01.14 Texas is hot, dry, and very very different!

03.24.14 We’re back on Wardline Road!
