The Great Plains Chase of 08

Day 9:

Today was a driving day. We traveled from Brookwood, TX to Artesia, NM. I feel asleep somewhere in Western Texas for about an hour and once I woke up we were in the middle of nowhere. Seriously, I have never seen anything like that before. At least in Texas or Kansas there was either cattle or agriculture on the farmlands. New Mexico is a desolate desert. I kept thinking I was going to see a lizard about the size of a dog run across the road. Once we got to Artesia, NM we went and ate at the best Mexican I have ever at Paco Juan's. Later we went back to the hotel and a few of us played a thrilling game of scrabble.
