This is our last stop on our trek across West Texas. What an amazing journey. It’s an amazingly vast landscape and a booming economy. Like the rest of the West, we see more and more solar and wind farms spread out where just wildlife and rattlesnakes made their home but here in West Texas we’re seeing more and more Nodding Donkeys/Oil Horses/Oil Derrick Pumpjacks and associated equipment And we’re seeing billboard after billboard advertising for workers as this area contributes to more affordable fossil fuel for the time being as we transition to renewables. Tonight we are in Abilene, Texas. We have reservations at the KOA just outside of town but before we head there we thought it might be a good idea to wash the dust off of our truck and trailer so we pulled into Super Suds Car Wash and administered a nice shower for both Eric and Sc@rlett!
Thanks to the organizational skills of Mandy & Kgreat weekend of endrick, the amazing support of their team, and the sponsorship of nüCamp RV we enjoyed a great weekend of camaraderie and fun at the Northeast Rally. Gathering with fellow teardrop aficionados is always an enriching experience and this gathering in the Adirondacks was no exception.
Over a long weekend we sampled some of the myriad things to do in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, unique among national parks for it’s environmental reclamation, historic preservation, and recreational opportunities adjacent to the populous cities of Cleveland and Akron in northeastern Ohio. Can’t wait to return and explore more.
Our journey from Portsmouth, England to our home in Ohio might have been accomplished in about sixteen hours but my avoiding air travel we were able to enjoy a fifteen day journey home via train, ship, Uber, train, as well as our own feet and finally our personal vehicle.
