Road Trip!

We are currently on day 2 of 3 for our New Mexico move. In the past 2 days we have driven through.... Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and now we are staying the night in Texas! I have never seen most of these states so it has gone by fairly quickly. I do feel sorry for Dierks, however, because he got sick within the first hour of driving and since has been strictly medicated in his cat carrier. He's definitely catching up on some Zzzzzzzz's for this trip (as if he needed any more sleep). We stopped a couple of times in Texas just to take pictures. In Amarillo we made it just in time to dump off the cat at the hotel (his medication was wearing off) and race for the Cadillac Ranch so that Joe could get good pictures before the sun set.The "Cadillac Ranch" is where someone just burried Cadillac's in their field and they let people come spray paint them. I don't really understand the point of it but Joe really put it in perspective when he said, "Well what's the point of going to see the butter cow at the Iowa State Fair?" Touche, Joseph, touche. Here are a few pix of our drive! Unfortunately I haven't been able to take many pictures because it's just me and the sleeping cat in the car (Joe has been driving the UHaul).

 Leaving our Georgia apartment... all packed up!
 
 
 Just had to take this picture in Oklahoma for Joe.... Garth Brooks Blvd!
 
 
 If you look closely you can see the rainbow... and Joe taking a picture. After we drove through the rain in Texas, he called and insisted we stop so he could take a picture of it. What a photographer!
 
 
 Cadillac Ranch... 10 buried Cadillacs in a field...


 Graffiti!
 
 
 I wonder what would inspire someone to do this... I'd rather drive the Cadillacs, personally.
 
 
 We found a paint can with paint... awe, look what Joe did. "Joe + Jess 2012"
