1. there is a LOT of wide open space in this part of the country. in fact, this morning we saw a sign for 20 acres of land for $15,000. what a bargain!
2. unfortunately, inconsiderate people stay in hotels and make lots of noise at all hours of the night.
3. water in the desert tastes yucky.
4. lovely, friendly people work at luby's cafeteria in el paso, texas.
5. don't eat diesel fried chicken.
6. a hotel in las vegas can make you feel almost as small as the vast, open landscapes in the desert southwest.
7. a LOT of people like to gamble. we're not members of that group.
8. all-you-can-eat buffets bring out people's animalistic, hoarding tendencies.
9. there's always room for dessert.
10. every day is a new beginning.
11. live in the present moment. it's all we've got.
12. texas is enormous. don't mess with it.
13. jogging is a great way to see the city from a different perspective.
14. a good night's sleep is priceless.
15. sometimes we wish we could drive 300 miles per hour.
16. we're all the same on the inside, and we basically want the same things: happiness, truth, kindness, hope, love. try to remember that the next time you're feeling angry or upset at someone else.
so there you have it: words of wisdom from two girls in love driving from one coast to the other and lovin' every second of it!
as always, we're sending lots of love and hugs across the miles...the girlz

Funny how my favorite is number 15 and I am the 15th kid in my family.
So, the next I talk about driving 85 or 135 MPH down the highway, remember, I learned to drive in te Southwest. At 100 MPH, it still takes 30 minutes to get to what your looking at.
Something else to conider, at around 83 MPH the odds of surviving a crash is about 17%. For every MPH you go beyond 83 MPH your odds of survival is reduced by 1% (rounding decimals).
When you go 100 MPH and beyond, your odds of surviving a crash is less then 1%.
