I am eating lunch now, Saturday the 16th, in the scenic quaint little town
of Ozona, Texas.

I have only driven 411 miles, not counting an hour side-trip wasted to get
some gear.    It is somebody elses turn to drive now.    The NSS Howdy
Party might as well be on the Moon at this point in my journey.

Here are 3 photos from my trip so far.

Anyway rational person would find a nice shady campground with a natural
swimming hole and call the trip a success.    However, I am not known in
any parts for rationality.

As I typed this message, my #1 client just texted me and offered to pay me
a respectable amount of cash to come to their office today and do some
work.    I am trying to convince them to save it till I get back.    They
do not like to hear that.    Had the jerks given me more notice, I would
have most likely planned a different trip.    But they allegedly agreed.

On a related note, driving across the desert in the middle of the summer in
the middle of the day is an asinine idea.

My new SUV is getting 16 mpg on the flats, but only 8 mpg on the uphill
stretches.

I probably should just go to Lake Balmorhea and spend the night and head
home.    Right ??

Or head south to a bar in Ciudad Acuna ??
