From Colorado to Texas

Our adventure to Lubbock, Texas started today.  But we almost didn't make it out of Louisville. Jeff was so enamored by the Rock, Paper, Scissors Tournament that we wanted to stay an practice for it.  I think that might be his new sport!  

Needless to say, we made it out of Louisville and onward to Amarillo, TX-our first stop before Lubbock.  We decided to drive 90% of the way today and finish the remaining 90 miles tomorrow morning.  It was HOT all the way down through eastern Texas, Oklahoma, and Texas.  Most banks read upper 90's and low 100's as we drove through small rural farming
 communities.
 The combination of SKINS keeping my legs cool and fresh (yes-they were not hot wearing tights) and Popups-make the drive more manageable. 


Jeff also wanted to live into the Texas adventure by getting a hat. For those of you who know Jeff, I am sure you are not surprises but the hat or that fact that I was hearing the words "Don't mess with Texas" about once every 15 minutes as we crossed into Texas.  Thank god for earphones.


Lubbock and more heat tomorrow!
Rock On
