State of Mind

So today we decided to skip out showers in light of the fact that the KOA bathroom was filled with crickets. And I mean filled. One jumped out of the sink drain at me.

Decided to escape the rain in a KOA Kabin.

We left behind the KOA to visit the national route 66 museum in Elk City. It was an entire complex of museums and was quite intresting. I bought some Oklahoma dirt (I love the red soil) and Brianne added to her postcard collection.

Soooo windy.

We crossed over into the panhandle of Texas and soon the landscape changed into flat desert  with canyons and mesas. We drove over to Groom and got pictures of the leaning water tower there and also the giant cross. The cross is 190ft tall and it's in the middle of nowhere. Great job guys that money could have gone to food for starving children. Instead you build a ridiculously sized crucifix in the middle of nowhere.

Further on we visited bug ranch, a parady of Caddilac Ranch only with VW Bugs. Then we visted Texas steak house and had some great steak and ribs. Just after that we visited the actual Cadillac Ranch and  I spray painted my art symbol on one of the cars.

Leaving our mark

Finally we visted the Midpoint Cafe in Adrian and had some pie. I had some apple pie and Brianne had some chocolate cream pie. We almost got there too later but the people there were very nice and let us have some pie right before they closed.

We're halfway there!!!

We had lots of fun despite the constant threat of rain and look forward to tomorrow. We're already halfway through!
