Happy Birthday Joanna! It is also Cody's and Jerry's birthday today, so happy birthday to them as well. (Nephews)
We started our trip and drove from Bastrop to Clovis, New Mexico, about 500 miles. It was a good drive, a pretty good rain about Levelland, TX, just west of Lubbock. We listen to audio books and today I did 3 sketches. A Coke can .. very wobbly and out of proportion. Some clouds, they were OK and this sketch of part of the dash of the van. Too much movement for any detail and I used a Sharpie, so no erasing. In a Canson sketchbook about 8 x 10 inches. Good practice.
I took about 31 photos. I liked this windmill along the road between Brownfield and Levelland. We went through beautiful Hill Country, desert with Mesquite around San Angelo and Big Spring and then the great plains and cotton fields. What a difference in topography. Tomorrow more high desert with pinon pines and cedar and then to Magdalena with mountains and regular pines. We paid $2.629 for gas just out of town and then it was $2.489 right by the hotel. Hmmm.
Later,
Jo
