First stop Brady Texas, then on to Irran. I might crash in Fort Stockton.

The mountains are secluded with bountiful varieties of wildlife.  
Mile after mile of  
hair pin turns and the windmills allude to surreal in the moonlight.

Catchya later!

Make sure you listen to Chuck Berry’s [No Particular Place to Go](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bhx96Nt5hyQ).

@China_Guy Thank You!

Guess what? I got a call from a dear friend, a disabled elderly vet. He sprained his ankle I stayed and helped him til this morning.

On the road again. Then I hit something in the road, could not avoid it. Bent wheel and the tire ruined.  
Then an angel stopped. An old cowboy with a lifetime of sorrow, sun and bone breaking hard labor stopped to help.

He had an old Ford Bronco II, 4 wheel drive with a trailer and ramps. He said “Mam’ looks like you need help.” I nodded and and was crying. He opened the door and I sat there in his warm truck.

He somehow got my car loaded and and quickly I might add!

I’ll finish later.
