Heading West

Posted by bajalou | 20th August 2007

Just coffee and juice at the motel so we can get going. Figure breakfast for somewhere 50 or so miles down the road. Taking I20 west till it merges with I10 which takes us to Las Cruces NM and a turn north on I25.
Stopped at a restaurant in a old brick factory. Interesting place, had been thriving town back in it's day of producing building bricks but only a few people left now. Great breakfast at a great price.
Back on the road through West Texas - pretty flat but not as flat as the panhandle. Get off for lunch in Abilene. Tried a Denny's - waited 10 min to give our orders and another 30 with no food and we along with 3-4 other couples left. Nothing else in town so will continue down the road. Remember this is Sunday in Texas - most things closed. At the next town that has a open restaurant we have lunch, get some gas and head for Monahans - the halfway point on our return trip.
Pass thru the Permian Basin - site of some of the best oil in Texas - Midland
