Vacation Wednesday afternoon

Hello again.
Vacation continues on Wednesday afternoon as we travel through No Man's Land and enter the panhandle of Texas... Above is picture-proof that it's a long way to Tucumcari and all parts West!
We stopped to soak up the history of the area surrounding the Canadien River... Now we wish we had read the signs. Below, Bob and Robin look for the river...
Below, we have found it and it is dry. West Texas is in a severe drought and we believe it.

End of day 1 and home looks like the Quality Inn. Stay tuned for more Travels to El Paso...

We head for El Paso...

On May 11, 2011, we headed West and South from Chanute on our way to visit Amanda in El, Paso, Texas, estimated travel time, 2 days, 900 plus miles. We considered turning back upon reaching Wichita, but instead drove on.
Along the way, we say some sights, notable because we never got out of the car... truly they were roadside attractions... or we didn't see them. Here's one.
and of course, while we didn't actually step foot in an art gallery, that didn't keep us from the art!

and interesting signage. Wednesday afternoon is next...
