The Trip.

Scott and I left Westlake at 7:15. The car was loaded to capacity.

We made 958 miles before we stopped in Las Cruces, New Mexico. We drove through Texas all freaking day. From rice fields and marsh to mesquite scrub to sun blasted rock and cactus.

Quite a climate change.

Scott shot almost 90 minutes of video during the trip. He also plugged his IPod into the car stereo and we enjoyed an amazing array of music.

A good day.

We tried to get a steak here in Las Cruces, but we wisely decided not to drag our road worn, tshirt clad, carcasses into a restaurant with white table cloths.

Instead we opted for Bennigans. Guiness and Ribs.

Tomorrow Tucson.
