So bc we left Big Bend and had driven a bit but just pulled over at rest stop. Good thing about Texas is you can sleep in rest stops.
You can see the Rio Grande just South of us. Mexico still on the other side. When we had driven into Bog Vend a few days ago we were surprised to see a border patrol checkpoint on the way in. We were then surprised last night when no one was there. I myself gaff found myself curious about what the border looks like in different places. You hear a lot of different things on the news.
The dirt road on the side in the highway is used by the orderb atrolp (Edwin is requesting I use pig Latin) agents. We also saw them dragging 3 tires behind their trucks to sweep for prints??
Got to another town Del Rio and this is the fence a few miles from the border. Don’t know how long it goes
Passed another orderb atrolp checkpoint. They simply asked how many people in the car? 4. They let us go. Do they just trust us? Is their heat seeking monitors to see if we’re telling the truth??
alright alright alright. Near the border town of del Rio…Michael McConaughey was born in Uvalde Texas if you’re curious.
San Antonio. We went to the site of the Alamo. 1836.
Vera can’t pass up a glass elevator. Even if it only goes up to level 2.
Then we fix the obligatory Riverwalk and enjoyed the outdoor music.
It was kind of crazy driving by and seeing the sky lit up by oil field lights.
