Terrible Day in Texas

Dear Yankees, Canuks and Brits... I love all you guys but I have just one word to say... FREEZE!!!! Muhahahahahahaha!




Who says we don't have curved roads?




I'm hungry! Anyone for a fresh steak?

I traveled to exotic places like Egypt, Spanish Camp, and other major areas....







Pretty day for a ride in Southern Texas.

Beautiful pics from the great state of Texas. Although, I'm still not convinced there are curvy roads in Texas in spite of the signs.

A Great Texas Ride

My favorite route is leaving Amarillo going north on 287/87 to Dumas, then Dalhart on 87, to Texline on 87, to Clayton, N.M. on 87 and on to Raton where 87 hits I-25. North is southern Colorado and south is to Sate Fe and Albuquerque. It's a great ride from mid-April to mid-October. The high plains are beautiful.

Go to Google maps and do a search for Barksdale, TX and look at 335, 336 and 337. Flip over to arial view once you find the roads. Not only do those curve, they go up and down. Sometimes all at once.

For anyone planning a trip to Texas and not really knowing what to do, the 3 twisted sisters is a nice ride. Just remember to watch out for deer, small furry creatures and falling rocks.
