Feb 1, 2023 Part 2
After leaving NM we spent 7 nights in Texas and while we spend allot of time ignoring the “good old boy” mentality that permeates every corner of Texas (and most of the country but less than last year) we do like the state parks in Texas and this year we tried a few new ones. Our first night was spent in Van Horn Tx just a stop over at the usual place that always has room and friendly staff, hot showers and laundry. We did laundry in Tucson so we had the night off and enjoyed our usual making dinner, doing dishes and watching a movie. In the morning we headed for 3 nights at Seminole Canyon State Park, very close to the Mexican border. Our cell service was about non existent but we were able to check in with Carmen and send texts to others. The weather was very warm in the 60s and 70s each day, we drove to Where the Pecos and Rio Grande rivers meet and we found a large flock of both sheep and goats walking up the dry Rio Grande riverbed making all kinds of noise, also we saw allot of birds.
