Aliens!

Dec 2 - 10, 2017

There are some cool parks in Texas, but none of them are along my route and I don't want to detour north to colder weather so I just kind of slogged across the state.

Cotton harvest is a little later than the one in Alabama


Free!! City park in Lamesa, TX with water, electric and dump station.  The sign says only four days are free but I stayed six, using my electric heater on the last two when the temps dropped to the 20s and it started snowing.

In 1947, an unidentified flying object crashed near Roswell, NM according to witness accounts and left a trail of debris and legends in its wake. And some tourist entertainment.

In case it isn't obvious, that's a street lamp with alien eyes and a Santa hat


Cheesy as all get out, but the UFO Museum is fun to visit.  They have several films to watch, tons of newspaper clippings and some interesting art.

There are aliens and spaceships all over the city if you keep your eyes open and alien-themed welcome signs along the roads.


After the mountains of New England, flat and straight is kind of nice.
