Texas photos...

Wednesday 26th December:
Everything went fine with the delivery this morning, yay. Though the truck's drivers side door has decided to stop working... no idea what happened or how but it wont open/unlock or anything, so we're heading towards a yard to get it fixed.

Got our reload while we were being unloaded this morning, we've got 2 days to drive 300 miles! hehe this also includes stopping at the yard to get the door fixed, but we're hoping that wont take too long. Just as a point of reference, we can travel about 700 miles in a day, so you can imagine that this trip is only a fraction of what we can do in a day.



Thursday 27th December:
I finally got some time online with a decent connection so I can post some photos i've been promising. I'll do them over a series of posts so if I only get a couple up here, know that i'll be adding more shortly.

Had a good night last night, curled up on a big comfy couch in the drivers lounge and read for a couple of hours while pat tried to sort out some computer issues. He helps run a gaming forum and their site has been broken for about a week, he's been working on it as hard as he can but it requires a decent speed connection to upload thousands of files and trying to deal with the tech support for his hosting company. I feel bad for him because the company broke it and they're telling him he has to fix it but it requires going through a lot of code, which can be tedious at best. Hopefully he figured it out this time and he'll have another attempt at it again tonight.

anyway, onto the photos.....


I think this is one of my favourites of the shots I took. My favourite part of the photo would have to be the clouds and the detail of them. Took this one on the way to San Angelo, Texas



Just to give you an idea of how deserted some parts of Texas are. This was taken on the way to San Angelo, Texas




I was playing around with settings on the camera, and found one that zoomed in on the mirrors and eliminated the shake so it looks like i took this from outside the truck looking back at where we've come from.
