I guess my high school Spanish teacher would be proud that I remembered something that was taught in class. Most of you realize that this is Nj writing tonight as the only thing Tim studied in high school was baseball and girls.
You always know when you enter a community that has a Latin influence because the restaurant signs all say, "Try our muendo, it's the best." Funny thing is I like muendo especially as a cure for a hangover.
So, we just completed day 3 on the US 10 and for those of you that have traveled it you know that the only scenery is desert, desert and more desert. Unfortunately neither Tim or I are "desert people" but I have to give them that they do have gorgeous sunsets and beautiful evenings.
Well, our luck didn't hold. We were in the truck 5 minutes when Harpo upchucked his breakfast then a 1/2 hour later he jumped into the litter box. Fortunately he only had to do #1 this time. One thing I did laugh at today were all the signs warning of "blowing sand" which is on the same level of Maine's "blowing snow" so I guess we all have our problems with "blowing."
I snapped this picture of Sadie (10 y old) sleeping in the back seat with Jackson. Sadie is usually the one who looks out the window a great deal of the time while we are traveling. But I think even she was bored with the desert.
Only 2.5 more days and we will be in the Houston area where there are real trees and even the gulf. It seems funny that now we are in Texas but we completed only 50% of the trip. Really looking forward to getting there and I think the critters would agree.
