Driving . . .
By Mark D. Roberts | Wednesday, October 3, 2007
I haven’t had opportunity to blog today. Had too much fun driving from California to Texas. Just over 1300 miles. Can’t even write a complete sentence today. Here are a couple of photos.
Saw lots of this.
And this.
Yes, I did take these while driving. Not to worry. You can see there isn’t much traffic on the 10 in the open spaces of Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. Peace.

Thanks for your willingness to make a comment. Note: I do not moderate comments before they are posted, though they are automatically screened for profanities, spam, etc., and sometimes the screening program holds comments for moderation even though they're not offensive. I encourage open dialogue and serious disagreement, and am always willing to learn from my mistakes. I will not delete comments unless they are extraordinarily rude or irrelevant to the topic at hand. You do need to login in order to make a comment, because this cuts down on spam. You are free to use a nickname if you wish. Finally, I will eventually read all comments, but I don't have the time to respond to them on a consistent basis because I've got a few other demands on my time, like my "day job," my family, sleep, etc.

Folks in Texas will know right away you’re from California because you refer to freeways as “the 10.”
Welcome!

But Texas is more than open spaces. It is pleasant nights in the fall and beautiful spring flowers, especially the bluebonnets. I can hardly wait to meet you at Laity. It has meant so much to our family.
I spoke with Steven this morning and the folks at the Foundation are eager to have you with them. Many will continue to be blessed through the ministry that is unique to the Frio River Canyon.

Larry: Look forward to meeting you too. Yes, I was in Texas last spring for the blubonnets. Amazing!

Mark,
Having just survived the move from Sacramento to Dallas last year, your pictures reminded us of what we said driving thru Texas the first time, “There sure is a whole lot of flat around here!”
We miss the Sierras to the east and the costal ranges to the west, but during the summer most of all we missed the Delta Breeze…
Welcome to Texas!

When I knew I was moving from California to Texas, I initially through the drive would be totally lame in I-10. I was happily mistaken. Welcome to the world of Mission Presbytery!
