Warp Speed

We have travelled from South Dakota to Wisconsin... Wisconsin to Rolla... and now Rolla to Tulsa, in a matter of a few days.  Tonight, we sit in a hotel room and are happy to report that both David's mother and brother are doing well.

The transition back into the cities and their traffic has been difficult after nearly two months in the "bush."  The air conditioner in our hotel room tonight feels stuffy.  We have grown accustomed to sleeping in the chill of the night air with nothing but stars and coyotes.  It feels odd to be surrounded by all the normal accoutrements of modern living.

We leave early Tuesday morning for our final push home.  Several friends have already warned us that the very landscape in South Texas has changed because of the drought.  What will we find awaiting us?

Suenos dulce... sweet dreams, dear friends.  Our next post signals the end to this year's adventure.
