Wednesday, May 19th

We started the day with coffee and donuts, compliments of the owners of the RV park. 

Starting on Highway 1760 and walking east, we came to Muleshoe after about an hour. Our RV park is just a short distance away, so we stopped there and picked up Carol and Ruth. Ruth and Carol took turns and walked through Muleshoe and out Highway 70 towards Plainview.

Just before entering Muleshoe, John and I saw something that neither one of us had seen. It was a nursery for dairy calves. Each one had her own stall and there must have been several hundred calves there. I suspect that they were too young to give milk and when they start giving milk, are transferred to one of the many feedlots we have seen.

Walked about 5 miles out of town, 11 miles total for the day. We found 18 cents, our first Texas money. Also found a dime an another socket, but they were stuck in the asphalt, had to leave them behind. Stay tuned .....
