Day 3 - NM to OK

This was our going to be our longest day of driving yet!  I knew this, so we started out as early as we could!  We had a really nice hot breakfast provided by the hotel and we were off on our way!  We left at about 8:15 am and by the time we got to the hotel in Oklahoma City it was 6:00 pm (we went ahead an hour too).   We only stopped once.


What we woke up to..... hot air balloons rising off into the distance.  


We stopped here for lunch and to break up our super long driving day.... and it was such a weird place.   We walked into an Applebee's restaurant and immediately felt awkward and different.  After we were seated, two snoodies asked to change their tables to move away from us,  I was stared down in the restroom, and our waitress was from Area 51!  It was the weirdest feeling!  We were only there about 45 mins. and we were back on the road so it didn't matter much to me!

This was nice to see!  It was a reminder that the Lord is indeed our refuge! (Psalm 46)

You're not kidding.... Texas was so flat!   And there really was nothing but dinky towns all through!  We only drove up the northern part of TX, but it was still pretty flat and bare.

Oh, look, a house or two.  




The perfect place for these!




We didn't really take any pics of Oklahoma because it pretty much looked like Texas.  Plus, I was SO not interested in OK!   The second I crossed the border I was bullied left and right by speed demons!  No, thank you. Oklahoma is not the place for me :)
