Farmland, farmland and more farmland. That is what we saw for 11 miles today. Very flat farmland. As we passed through the small town of Lockney, a man asked, "Where are you walking to?". John replied, "Georgia". The man said, "Georgia !" somewhat surprised and then said, "Good luck". On we walked.

We did see several things that we hadn't seen before. There are scattered about, low places in the fields that attract standing water. And since it has rained here quite a bit over the last few weeks, there are several of these pools. One even had a no swimming sign. We saw four ducks at one of these water holes today. Haven't figured what type, but they were black and white.

We also saw a crop duster, which makes sense in this farm country, but how do you explain a helicopter? Don't know, but we saw one.

We are 4 miles west of Floydada and should be 7 miles east of Floydada tomorrow. Today we found a penny.

What do you think of Carol's toenails?  Stay tuned ........
