Started off the day with going to Granbury, TX where Mark Fowler, former Metro partner of mine lives. I met him where he currently works with some young guys training horses for competitive roping. It was a fun watching someone practice their craft that they are obviously good at.

Mark was kind enough to offer his house to stay at in Oct when I wrap up in Corpus Christi. I might just take him up on that.
I headed out towards Abilene, TX. No particular route, just the westerly direction. It’s a good thing I wasn’t set on a direct path, because Texas DPS had the road I was on completely blocked off due to a head-on wreck. A short prayer for those involved and a detour around.
I made it to Abilene around six. Once again this town won’t make the short list.
