Who would have thought that

Who would have thought that New Mexico is really just a hop, skip and a jump away from Dallas? I certainly didn’t. In six hours (five if you include the timezone jump) you can be in Hobbs, New Mexico (The Soaring Capital of the World). Highway 180 provided a nice, empty, road all the way there. This is the same Highway 180 that goes into Arizona’s Petrified Forest. The entire trip I only saw about 20 cars. You should get to Hobbs quick because the new Super WalMart is almost finished, and it will never be the same after that.

I took pictures along the way. When I finish out the roll I’ll even post them somewhere. Hopefully the cow pics will come out good. There is nothing funnier than a bunch of cows wandering through an abandoned building that is falling apart.
