Started yet another day with texas shaped waffle and now we’re ready to start our our next adventure .

Paisano Pete: Giant Roadrunner

Our first stop is the Giant Roadrunner in Ft Stockton.

San Solomon Springs

Very cool place, the pool was huge and apparently water temperature stays in the 70s all year round, Didn’t have time for a swim but was tempting. Did get to try my new action cam under water here. Will post the videos soon. Well worth the stop.

Thundering Hooves Memorial Fence

We noticed this while driving towards Big Bend, interesting stop. If you like horses check out their site and see what they are doing.

Driving to Ft Davis

Fort Davis National Historic Site

Was not on our planned route, so didn’t have much time here but was still worth the stop.

Rattlers and Reptiles

Border Patrol 9/11 Memorial

Target Marathon

The Chicken House

Driving through Big Bend

La Kiva: Dinosaur Cave Bar and BBQ

Very cool place and food was very good, only thing to pick on was the service was a bit slow when we was there but wont stop us from going again :)

After the dinner we drove to the hotel and got ready for a day in Ghost town Terlingua.

That’s all for this day ;)
