Fort Stockton, Texas

Man is Texas windy and flat. And big and empty.
This was the worse driving conditions we have encountered with high head winds up to 30 miles an hour. Andy found truckers to draft behind but couldn't keep up with them. We probably only got 7 miles to the gallon!
Fort Stockton is about 250 miles east of El Paso.....we are almost completely through the state! This is also the gateway to Big Bend National Park. We have dropped the RV and are planning on a day trip to the park tomorrow. Doing some hiking through the Chisos Mountains and the Rio Grande.
The picture above is "hay art". Its how the Texans decorate their fields.
