the eyes of texas are upon us

Howdy yall - Another productive day in the saddle - It was a whole lot cooler and cloudier today but hell we just grabbed some of the ole' winter stuff we brought and put er on - it's like the friggin wild wild west here - not to mention after 290 miles we land up in a DRY COUNTY!!!! This is why we are packing but hell we're gonna run out soon!!!!hahaha. We took Rt 66 through Oklahoma City (I think I sang that damn Oklahoma song throughout that WHOLE state - good thing no one could hear me!!) and then we totally lost the road - I mean everytime we tried to follow it and took a turn we wound up in somebodies driveway - not to worry though these driveways are about 2 miles long - does everyone own 500 acres or what!!!! SOOOO plan B the Super Slab - that's hog talk for highway. These highways are totally unbelievable - picture this - miles upon miles of rolling roads 4 lane divided highway with about 15 cars on it!!! I swear there were times there was no one in front or behind us....This is one big STATE!!! Hopefully tomorrow we can make it to Tucumcari New Mexico and then another short trip to Santa Fe New Mexico - where we just might spend a few days - give the ole butts a break. We are keeping an eye on the storms and we have plenty of time on our side. Hope y'all are weathering the storms out. Stay dry, be cool, and keep on smiling The Flame and Big Dog
