Leg 1 on the way to Hammond for Turkey Day.
We didn’t stop except for a brief moment in Brownfield, TX, for a snack and a gas-up. Our original plan was to visit the National WASP Museum, but they close at 5:00pm, and we didn’t get to town until after 3:00. I figured we’d be in town around 2:00pm, but I forgot about losing an hour going to Central Time from Mountain Time. We can’t do it on the way back because they’ll be closed on the day we come this way. We’ll reschedule for a different trip.
I didn’t take the picture of the day until we stopped here in Sweetwater. I remember when Donna and I passed through in 2023, there was a big wind turbine blade right around the corner from the museum. Sally and I drove over after dinner at a place the desk clerk recommended. It is a regional chain called Skeet’s Texas Grill, and the food was excellent: chicken quesadilla for her and fish tacos for me.
