Day 4 Texarkana Texas to Midland Texas.

535 miles today.

Very windy and hard to stay on the road this afternoon.
It got HOT!!! 91 by 1:00.
Here are some photos of Dallas


After Dallas comes the East Texas Landscape.
Bridges over swamps are common. Don't know why they use so many supports.

 Kinda flat
 Some wooded areas though

 Gates to the homes are cool

 Sex stores out here are very common

A load of oil drilling pipe headed to West Texas
This is the Fort Worth skyline

After this comes the Texas Hill Country


Next is West Texas. That is oil country and it is all flat and covered with catcus
 Dippy-Ducks pump oil from the well to storage containers.

 Hard to see but there are hundreds of wind turbines on the hill.
 Here are some by the road.  The wind is fierce out here!!!

That is if for tonight.
Need a shower and rest. The wind and sun takes a lot out of you.
