Thursday, November 6, Day 64 - Wichita Falls, Texas.
Sorry, no pictures today. We left Amarillo this morning around 9:30AM, and headed southeast on Rte. 287 for Wichita Falls. The trip was uneventful, and there really wasn't anything to photograph along the way. All we saw were wide-open spaces, a few cows and horses, and what we guessed might have been wheat fields. We also saw lots of cotton fields along the way. About the only thing we might have photographed, but couldn't because they were too far off the road, were camels, yes, I said camels!! I believe there were actually 3 of them grazing about 200 yards off the road.
So, anyway, we arrived in Wichita Falls at around 3:30PM, and immediately found another Wal-Mart parking lot to stay in tonight. We are actually less than 150 miles from Flower Mound, Texas, and we will travel that way tomorrow. After we arrived, we drove the car around Wichita Falls to see if there was anything interesting to see here. Around 4:45PM, we found an "On The Border" restaurant in a mall. We decided to stop in for a margarita and some nachos. On the way back to the motor home, the GPS was guiding us, but the roads here were so confusing because of construction (not the margaritas), that we had to make several course corrections before we finally got onto the correct roadway to get us back to the Wal-Mart lot. Good thing too, 'cause the dogs were waiting for their dinner when we finally made it back.
Check back tomorrow, as we might have some pictures to show you. Sorry, again, for the lack of photos today.

I have a request. Since you're in Texas, aka where people eat, sleep and drink football, try to take in small-town Texas high school football. I've always wondered if towns truly shut down on Friday nights...and here it is Friday night. I doubt you'll be able to go to a game, but if you witness anything crazy in regards to high school football, I'd love to hear about it.
Have fun.
