From San Antonio to El Paso is over 500 miles and lots of flat mesas, dry arroyos, and flocks of buzzards overhead,hence the lack of road kill.
We drove smack into a record breaking heat spell of 109 degrees!
Oh please,Prius,don’t fail us now. The AC keeps putting out cold air and we keep humming along. (Prius’s kind of hum) We stopped at a roadside rest and had lunch when it was still only about 104 degrees. With buzzards flying overhead and a loan gecko waiting for scraps. I have to say it was fun. It’s a dry heat.
The views are as panoramic as it gets. The sky goes from horizon to horizon and everything in between, reminds me of the movie “The Searchers” with John Wayne and Jeffery Hunter.(1956) I hope no one has to come searching for us.
Oh yes the cats, we keep the car running with the AC on for Leo and Seville at all times and take turns for rest breaks at the gas ups.
