I'm in my motel room in Gallup, New Mexico for the evening. Going to grab a shower and a decent meal, then I'll see if I have any decent pictures of the Texas/ New Mexico desert. That bed is looking mighty inviting though.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Cool beans!

 

[Stumper]

Well, I hope you waved at my family as you blew through Grants.

 

[tntree]

You be a Motorin fool. Keep your eyes open on that road

 

[sotc]

I'm glad you got that laptop Brian! Fisherman's wharf is good for a laugh, some interesting stuff, and some real weirdos!

 

[Paul B]

Well done Skwerl, have a good night!

 

[SkwerI]

Not sure what the Grants are, but I got some bad pictures of Texas and NM. What I could see in the distance didn't show in the pictures.

Texas is surprisingly boring. Even the Eastern part around Dallas/ Ft Worth was unappealing IMO. What trees they had were small, and there were very few trees west of Ft. Worth. New Mexico has some pretty terrain but no trees at all. I don't think I've seen any taller than 25' in the last 800 miles.

The last one with the rainbow was just as I was pulling into the motel parking lot.

 

[pantheraba]

Excellent pictures, Brian...get some rest now, bro.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Wish I was more in your path Brian... But I will see you there bud.
BTW you would have to swing more North in NM to see the bigger trees on the way to Colorado Ask Leon... HAHAA

 

[sotc]

Well, Texas has some cool clouds

 

[squisher]

Lol, everything's bigger in Texas................except the trees.

 

[sawinredneck]

And they say Kansas is flat with no trees:roll:

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Them that don't know Kansas anyway

Carl is asleep upstairs at my house. Talked to Brian this afternoon and he is scheduled to be rolling in tomorrow afternoon. I took Carl to my Godson's place of work for a tour this afternoon. He works for Schilling Robotics in Davis and they make remote operated submarines.

 

[Paul B]

Good vibes Ste, keep an eye on the young man but I bet he will be heeled and behaved.

 

[OTGBOSTON]

hahaha

 

[sotc]

You did tell the girls not to come over, right?

 

[Old Monkey]

I think Dad coughed up the cash for overseas vacations.

Brian, Grants was the town 60 miles before you reached Gallup (basically the only place other than Gallup with multiple lodging choices between Albq. and the Az line). Unfortunately for tourists (good for truckers I suppose since some scenery can make roads crooked) I 40 is routed through the most boring scenery in TX, N.M. and AZ. There is lots of cool stuff to the north and south of the I.(mostly south of it in TX)

 

[Cobleskill]

Justin,

I agree with your assesment of I-40. Mostly big rocks.

 

[Cobleskill]

Whoops,

I just looked on the map. It was I-10. In my defense it was in the '70s when I drove it.

 

[sawinredneck]

I rather enjoy driving I-40, I guess I like rocks?
