In the words of Gomer, "Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!".
I've thoroughly enjoyed your report and your excellent photos.
From the posts after the photo of your dad's finger (
2 points off for that disturbing image, still that's a 98 or A+) until Dumas TX., it was a top notch
report and (it appears) trip. I've been through Dumas too many times to have any interest in the ride after that.
Thanks again, very well done.
