wednesday Leave Austin to Pecos TX
Sorry to leave Austin, but time to move on. Was a pretty drive for most of the day. Hilly with buttes and wind mills. Then we got about 40 miles from Pecos and it turned very flat, and barren. Much more of a desert view. Most of the hotels in Pecos looked very run down and bleak. We finally picked the Quality Inn. Price was higher then we wanted to pay, but it is clean has an ok bed. Room came with micro and fridge so is nice for leftovers. Pool is cute, but of course closed. This whole town is closed. No landscaping and really ugly. Dad tried to call 3 different resturants and no one answered the phones. Looks like a really hit hard by the recession town. We found a chinese resturant and got food to go. They were nice and had only been open 6 weeks. On to Carlsbad caverns tomorrow. Tried to take pics of the windmills, but we were too far away..
