Fort Stockton, Tx

Marjorie came home Saturday and we went to lunch with her, mom, Ron, Jenn, Jeff and his 3 kids, Ben, Josh and Madelyn. Sunday we drove around looking for a power cord for our GPS, as Cocoa chewed the one we had in half, and we didn't have enough time to order one online. No luck finding one.

Next we planted an orange tree and a blue spruce, then began packing for our departure on Monday, today.

We departed at 11:39 am CST and drove 315 miles to Fort Stockton, where we are spending the night.

 Nice rolling hills and buttes along the way, but it was a little tricky as we had a constant 20 mph crosswind from the south with occasional higher gusts. The wind will remain with us all night.

Tomorrow we are heading to El Paso where we will spend a few days looking around.

BTW, we had a real chill here when we arrived. The temperature was 71 degrees, down from a high of 84 (no, we don't miss the cold and snow at all).
