Nov. 4, 2013 – Almost home in Texas, well--over half way there!

We are in Texas, but just at the border in Anthony, TX.  We have about 800 miles to go in this 2,000 mile trip. 

We spent the previous night in Benson, AZ, where Sharon and Don Del Rosario call “home.”  At least that is where they own a lot and storage shed, smile.  We passed through Tucson early Sunday morning and then ran into a lot of wind.  So, we decided to stop in Benson and wait til the following morning to pass through the AZ and NM dust-blowing areas.  I have photos of the Del Rosario’s homestead, but I am short of time this morning.  Will try to post this afternoon from Fort Stockton.

We had a lovely visit with Don and Sharon and all went out to dinner at Pablo's in Benson.  It was nice being able to spend some time hearing what wonderful adventures they had this summer.

It rained in Benson and Lordsburg Sunday night, so we didn’t have any trouble with dust or the wind. However, instead of spending the night in Deming, NM, as planned, we decided we had to push on to make today a shorter trip of 250 miles.  We stopped and ate our lunch while visiting with Jim and Penny Scott and continued on to Anthony, TX, to stay at the American RV Park just up behind Camping World.

More on that later today.  We are headed for Fort Stockton for tonight—a long haul for us on this trip—256 miles!  Chat with you later today!
