Last morning...April 19, 2009

and....we are done. We spend our last night in San Diego. We'll be home in hours. Im gonna miss the RV. It's super fun. Here's our last picture. You should know Corey has taken all of our "family" pics himself. He insisted on it. Like a dogma.

Old married RV-er's....with a fluffy dog.

I drive....I do not like it

So after being in the RV for almost two weeks Corey finally lets me drive. Turns out these things are bulky and the wind blows it all around. I can't really figure out how wide I am. It makes my stomach ache. I last a little over an hour. Notice forced smile.

The Thing (see earlier post)

So if you've ever driven thru southern Arizona you've seen the signs for THE THING. There are maybe 200 of them. Ive never went in until now. Corey and I paid our $1 each for entrance and discover......THE THING is really........just a lot of random things. I felt I got my bucks worth.





Driving home

Mabel has finally gotten comfortable in the RV.

Walmart parking lot - We are officially RV'ers

Dont be jealous.

Demming, New Mexico

April 17, 2009 - Bye Marfa.


We leave Marfa. Im sad. I would like to stay another day in this hipster cowboy twilight zone. On the way out we see this. A fake Prada store some German artists built outside of Marfa. In the middle of no where. You can drive eitherway for at least 45 mins and not see a thing. It's super odd. It looks like a real store but ain't. And people leave their business cards on this little ledge that goes all the way around the store. Corey left his card. So did some computer tech from Juarez who stopped while we were there. Agian, it's very windy. Click on the picture to enlarge it and check out Mabel. Here's a tip: Always wear boots in West Texas.

Oh and if you do keep driving you'll see a blimp parked all by itself. Turns out it's used by the border patrol. Border Patrol and blimp never seemed like a match to me but...okay. I didn't take a picture but you can google it.

This is where we stayin Marfa. The Thunderbird. More things should be called the Thunderbird. Say it. It's nice right? The Thunderbird.

They were also nice enough to provide this camouflage for the RV.
