We did things a little different today. We moved the RV this morning, leaving Plainview and arriving at Wayne Russell RV Park, a city owned park, in Floydada. If Ruth understood the lady at city hall correctly, the cost is $5. per night, pay before you leave town. Cheap!

Floydada got it's name from Floyd County and the Ada is the name of a prominent citizen's wife in years gone by.  Floyd County got it's name from Dolphin Ward Floyd, who died at the Alamo. It is also the Pumpkin Capital of the USA and there is a Boston Terrier Museum.

We walked through town, passed the Dixie Dog Drive-In, and were on our way to Matador. This is now wheat country. Golden waving wheat, just like the song. We did another 11 miles and found a penny. Stay tuned .....
