Back to Civilization ... Almost

Whew!  That was a difficult 20+ hours with no cell service yesterday.  I think we would have been OK without data but no cell was over the top.  The Lost Maples State Park (where we stayed) is famous for their Spring/Fall foliage; people did not mention that you are so far removed from civilization that cell service is impossible!  That said, we departed a day early and continued our trip North.

We drove through a part of TX that we never knew existed; Exotic Animal Ranches.  As we meandered through West Texas we wondered why the ranches had so many different gates (many were numbered) and why the fences were so high. Eventually we figured out that they were Exotic Animal Hunts; NOT ranches!  This is huge business in West TX; we had no idea!  Got to see lots and lots of normal wild life and some critters that we couldn't identify.

Adjuster Dog's POP (point of potty) today was San Angelo, TX.  Apparently the town was formed after the civil war calmed down and the Calvary left the area.  It was considered a "healthy spot" during the Tuberculosis outbreak because of its mild climate.  There ya go.

Below is a picture of her highness in her new portable, orthopedic bed which happens to fit between the driver/passenger chairs.  Philoberto wants everyone to know that the bed was on sale for $9.99; we can't remember what town.  She likes hanging out up front rather than doing the Rosa Parks thing.

Tomorrow we're heading in to Sweetwater, TX for the 55th annual Rattle Snake Roundup.  We have no idea what to expect but by golly, we're headed to town.  Details to follow ....

Peace & Love & Pray for Storms ya'll!
