Austin TX - Carlsbad NM



Had a drive through Texas on Route 10 for quite a while. I saw Mesas for the first time. Lots of Texas Longhorn, Oil digging-machinery-thingys, and a couple of "wind farms". Areas of hundreds of windmills on mesas. Very cool. We didn't spend a whole lot of time checking out Austin, other than eating a nice dinner and breakfast. It seems like a mellow, fun town.

The drive was gorgeous, and the pictures I managed from the passenger seat at 90 miles an hour don't do it justice whatsoever, but I took a bunch anyway. I started to feel like the dog on a leash who'se just out of reach of the water bowl....so many gorgeous photos, but no time to stop. Tommorrow in the desert, we'll have more time.
