OK now our travels and a few pictures-
The Caves of Sonora Texas were awesome. I took 60 plus pictures but will share only a few-
This is an active cave in other words it continues to make formations. The caves are warm in fact in some spots it is 80 degrees with lots of humidity. The tour takes almost two hours to walk through the cave and the pathways are quite narrow.
One formation...David thought it looked like two bears hugging
Worms??
These two formations were a drip away from joining in 1948 and 60 years later they are still a drip away. Gives you some idea of how slowly they 'grow'.
This is an interesting and very worth it place to go. If you ever get the chance I recommend it.From Sonora on to New Mexico. We found a state park in the sand dunes. I loved it...Loi and David not so much. Peeko wasn't too thrilled either as there was no grass or trees for him to go potty on. It was quite the chore to get him to do anything while there!
The windmill is used to pump water. These are seen all over where we traveled.
While traveling through New Mexico we all wondered just how the folks that live outside of a town survive. The towns are miles and miles apart and the houses/ranches are miles and miles from each other. How do they manage groceries, how do they get their mail (we didn't see any mailboxes) etc etc.I did get one decent picture of the terrain...

And antelope ...
Today we traveled through Oklahoma and onto Kansas and the wind continued to blow as the temperature dropped. Tomorrow we hope to get to Sioux City Iowa. Loi sister lives there and she would like to stop and visit. Then home the next day...if the weather will allow.By the way, any guesses on who Dorothy is who the Lion is and who the Good witch would be??? Toto goes without saying, or does it?

Thanks for taking Grandma on such a journey. Sounds like you are all having a good time. Take lots of pictures of her and her sister together. I hear they are very similar.
