talked with a gentleman for a couple hours abour the values of the American yourh; he was from the middle east.... funny how certain destinations become milestones in ones mind... 1000 miles, TexasState Line... Austin.... Today will be one month i have been on the road, using distance traveled in that month against distance left i would think i will be writing this blog somewhere between here and San Diego in 30 more days.... Which is fine, also means i have two months to do my tax... Lol Hope everyone has a great Valentine day!!! Dinner and drinks are on me if anyone wants to stop over, i will volunteer to be the designated driver if one is needed.... ;-) Chance of showers/drizzling tonight, temps are suppose to be good, did not check winds... i seen an old barn in Texas rebuilding after the fire... Fire did some damage but most people seem to be rebuilding or have moved modulars in.... Seen buildings/houses burned on both sides of the 4 lane highway... Miles and miles of forest burned and the culprit was a replaced bearing on a piece of farm equipment, it overheated while being used and caught the farmers field on fire.... I have followed several major fires and may have even read about this one but to actually see such a large area burned with foundations, slabs for garage or chimneys standing in the burned forest, gives me a better understanding of what these firefighters go up against... The firetruck pictured above remained to long trying to save the house that is being rebuilt... What danger did the firefighters endure to try and save one of many homes... Staying until the fire was upon them, preventing themfrom taking the truck.... fire in Bastrop forest, Oct 13 2015 left a lot of devastation, rode in the park for miles and seen burnt forest, homes and out buildings... like the gate!!!
