Another good day of traveling. Enid again did really well, enduring the first couple hours of the car ride without complaint, and sleeping though the last couple. The only problem is that we have crossed two time zones in two days. and consequently we’ve gotten a later start each morning and arrived at our destination later each evening. But we won’t be crossing any more time zones before Monterrey and all the remaining drives will be short ones, so hopefully we can reign in the late bedtimes soon.

We crossed some beautiful, wide-open country over the last two days. It was good for the soul to see so much land virtually untouched by human activity, especially after a couple of weeks in the appalling sprawl of Southern California. Tonight we are staying in the surprisingly nice small town of Ozona, Texas, midway between El Paso and San Antonio.
