No not that kind of hot, keep it clean people!
We left Corpus Christi Thursday morning and arrived in Fort Davis to our hotel being closed 🤦🏻♀️ Luckily the place next door, The Harvard Hotel, had 2 rooms available and a restaurant. We were set.
West Texas did not disappoint either! While the hottest temp we saw was 101° we kept hydrated and were able to get through the heat! The grandeur of the mountains are just spectacular and will never get old. Had lunch in Langtry, neat but kind of sketchy hole in the wall, you would never know of this place if you didn’t already know of this place kind of place. Let’s just say I’m glad I cut my hamburger in half and that I ate real good at dinner!
Thursday night we drove up to the McDonald’s Observatory for a star gazing party. We got a little lesson on the stars and constellations as well as being able to look through five different high powered telescopes at some pretty amazing stars, star clusters and one dead star. The pitch black night at the top of the mountain and the amount of stars you get to see is very impressive. The ride down the twisty road in this same pitch black night on motorcycles was not impressive, especially when I was able to smell the rain from a nearby storm. We made it back to our hotel dry, thank goodness, and only saw one deer, again, thank goodness! Oh and Bryan kept talking like Marvin the Martian and pissing off the nerdy astronomers handling the telescopes.
Bryan, in his best Marvin the Martian voice: Q36
Nerdy astronomer dude, fed up with Bryan’s bullshit while waiting to look through the telescope: M13!
This morning we headed for Roswell, NM. It was a nice cool morning, but it warmed up pretty quick. We made it into Van Horn on fumes in the gas tanks because the guys wanted to see how far they could make the bikes go. Seriously though, that little light shined for a good 15 miles at least! Breakfast was great and we were on the road again! Made a stop to stretch and use the facilities, that happens, especially when it was Mexican for breakfast! One more stop for gas and into Roswell we went.
Lots of people are here for the 75th anniversary of the “incident” and Bryan is on the lookout for the guys from Ancient Aliens. He’s going fanboy on me!
We’ll see what the next 3 days bring and takes us to as we take some day trips around the area!
