Today was a pretty rainy day here in Fort Stockton. We realized today that we had gotten used to the monsoon type of rain. Guess it's time to adjust to different weather patterns again! 🙂 The light areas on the ground in the background of the photo are where all the water collected.

Texas: Welcome to our new state
With a long drive ahead of us, we left Deming around 8:30 a.m. We didn't unhook our Jeep when we pulled into our spot, so it didn't take very long to get ready to go.
