Sounds like you had a real vacation, Chuck. All the kids were back in school, so the roads were less travelled? Otherwise your shots would have had most of another RV in 'em. [:D]

Nice pics. I have been out that area several times, so I understand why there wasnt more RVs. Not much traffic in west texas. Kinda of barron country. Hope your vacation was good.
