Howdy from Austin Texas
When last we posted Ann and I were in Alpine. We left Alpine Saturday morning on a mission. We had two days to cover a little over 200 miles to reach Del Rio, Texas for the next stop on our tour with Lt. Wes Morgan and his roommate Travis. Both are stationed at the Laughlin Air force base for flight training and have invited Ann and I to join them for a Super Bowl party at the base.
We covered 106 miles on Saturday and reached Dryden home of a mercantile store and nothing else. We camped alongside the road next to an abandoned building and some railroad tracks with frequent visits by trains.
Sunday we battled the wind and the hills to reach our hosts in Del Rio. I've never been on a military base before but Ann and I felt very safe with our hosts and their friends watching the Super Bowl and actually seeing a good game. Just after midnight Wes and Travis helped me celebrate the 30th anniversary of my 23th birthday to cap the day.
Pretty cool!!
