Rest Day in Texas

Laundry, blue bells, and Fort Davis — an old Army Fort to protect the settlers on the road to El Paso. A sweet little town with an old fashioned ice cream soda fountain. Tin ceilings and antiques are everywhere. Our hotel was built by the CCC. It is beautiful.

There is a peccary - hmmm — a javelina in the photo if you look close. Those cottonwood trees I guess were there when the Fort was started in the 1820's. It closed for the Civil War and reopened. Buffalo soldiers were stationed there.

The scenery is spectacular — I’m in love — the countryside is beautiful. I can’t hear I-44 anywhere.
