Ok, let's recap the last few days. I left Oklahoma City after a night of fun with Norman masterBates, Pipe, Massage Menage, and E-Whore. I had an absolutely beautiful ride to Texas with a stop in Amarillo. Amarillo is a nice little city with much to do. Imagine riding down the highway and seeing in the distance a row of 10 Cadillacs buried half deep with their asses in the air. Cadillac Ranch is in the middle of a huge field of nothing. Some guy built it at the same angle of the Pyramids of Cheops. It was certainly worth the trip.

Leaving Amarillo, I headed south to Palo Duro Canyon where I would be spending the night. I have never been in a canyon before so when I finally saw it, after riding for miles of nothing but flat land, needless to saw, I was awestruck. This thing went down over three miles, and my campsite was sheltered by the canyon walls. I rode around the canyon for an hour or so, and decided to hike the 5 miles to the Lighthouse, a rock formation that looks like... Well, a lighthouse. After a well needed shower, I saw a musical called "Texas.". It was at an outdoor pavillion with the canyon walls as its backdrop. There must have been 60 to 80 actors, and when it was finished, I was proud to call myself a Texan.

Todsy I was woken up at 4:30 by a storm rolling in. I decided to hit the road and enjoyed the hell out of it. It was dark, there were no cars on the road. All of a sudden, it looked like Christmas Texas style, with lights, sirens, the works. I was being pulled over by a Texas Ranger! Apparently, (don't believe it mom and dad) I was going 77 in a 70. We chatted for a while, he invited me to sit in his car (front seat), and gave me a warning. No fine! The rest of the day was a piece of cake. Made it to Roswell to meet some aliens, but all I saw was a sea of tackiness. Stores selling all kinds of kitch. It had to be seen though. Finally, I got to my final destination, Carlsbad Caverns, and saw my bats! Around 400,000 of them streaming out of the mouth of a cave! Truly amazing.

Well it was getting late, and a huge storm saturated the ground, so I decided to hotel it tonight. I pulled my bike in to the room with me. She,s been so good, she deserved some air conditioning. Thank you John and Joan for the room tonight.

Well that's all for today. Tomorrow's El Paso. On Out
