Travel Journal Day 2 West and South

Today we headed to Texas we drove for around 11 hours. It was a very long day. At one point we all had the giggles which I am sure would have been a sight to see.

The scenery today really was beautiful. Here on in we know it will continue to change. Today we went from hills, to prairie, and on to the wide open fields of Texas. Tomorrow we will get into more hot dry weather as we head more south through Arizona.
Here are some snap shots from our day today.

Gateway to the West!

Time for hugs!

Wind Power!

Visiting a very large cross with some wonderful statues to look at.

The sun sets on another day as we head west bringing us closer to a new home.

Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.
John 16:24
