Help? Well let me tell ya, them boys was gone in five minutes. One trip to the VW storage bus an' they was out of here. They ain't carry no more Billy Bob stuff. Ya just cain't get good help now days. Text'n, iPod'n....stuff like that ya know.
I'm think'n probly I-10 as my intended route to Deming. Not that I like travel'n interstates, but it's the most practical route for destination. The more scenic and most comfortable route would be US 90 out of San Antonio to Van Horn where ya pick up I-10 west all the ways to Deming. Boy howdy, I hate decisions like this.
I suppose some of ya remember my adventure in Van Horn bout three years back. Caused a internet ruckus amungst the RV'n community. All over a "overnight camp'n" citation I received at the local truck stop. There was so many emails an' phone calls, City Hall's internet system shut down an' phones only rang....nobody answer. Do I still pass through Van Horn? Yup sure do, bout a hunnert mile a hour. Only stop for fuel if'n I don't think I can make it to El Paso. Did I pay the citation? Nope, an' I ain't gonna.....never ever. Wonder if'n Van Horn ever changed their ordinance on overnight park'n??? I ain't gonna overnight park there just to satisfy my "wonders". At $85 a pop, I ain't gonna do it.
That's all behind me now, there's a new day on the horizon. Tomorrow!!! I'm think'n long bout noon tomorrow, the gates of El Rancho Abraham will be shut behind me an' I'll be on my way. A couple hunnert miles up the road a piece, I'll overnight. Be it the rest area in Kerrville or the Walmart in Uvalde, I'll get me a good nights sleep an' wake up to a new tomorrow. Don't ya just love tomorrows???
In the mean time, I got stuff to do......laters.

Dad gum it, I still have 16 more days before I get to roll. The city park in Junction has free camping by the city lake under the trees.
ReplyDeleteThanks Barney. That would be more comfortable than a rest are in Kerrville. Trees even!!!
Deletehi, daddy... you be careful out there. hope to hear from you soon. love you...
ReplyDeleteHave a good safe trip!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful trip! I just arrived at my NY destination and sure am glad to be outta that car.
ReplyDeleteOn the road again, a happy time. Be safe and don't speed too fast through Van Horn. You don't want to give them any excuse to stop you.
ReplyDeleteYea Dizzy I can see a warrant with Billy-Bobs name on it. Hate to see him haul off to the pokey and made to wear that orange jumpsuit....
DeleteHappy Miles for you, Billy Bob and the future days filled with pain-free pleasure, good visits with Wayne and the best of best verdict from your doctor. Take care of you and your furry girl, Sadie Mae.
ReplyDeleteTravel safe, enjoy the trip and have a bit of fun along the way too.
ReplyDeleteShiny side up!
I read about your adventures everyday, and I think I can see the smile on your face! With enough alkiseltzer, you have to be happy to finally be on the road.
ReplyDeleteHave Fun!!
