Sunday. Travel day. Our first interstate day. Straight down the road 260 miles past Sonora, Ozona, Fort Stockton and Balmorhea. We meant to spend the night at Balmorhea State Park, the place with the giant freshwater spring fed pool. (The spring is giant, and so is the pool.)
But the State Park is full today; no room for us, so we drove on to the Van Horn KOA, another 68 miles.
Suddenly we’re at 4,000 feet elevation, with a desert humidity of 11%!
We have experienced a lot already this trip. We’ve been hot, we’ve been cold, we’ve been dry, and now we’re high!
Good cell and internet. The first day we’ve been back in touch. We can catch up on trip reports and everything else.
Saw two violet-green swallows.
