No plan today other than drive west. We ran into the town of Newcastle which made us laugh since Norm's family is from Newcastle England! It's also a coal mining town.
We stopped to see Fort Belknap outside of Newcastle as Trip Advisor said it was the one thing to do in Newcastle. This fort was built to protect the Texas frontier against raids by the Kiowa and Comanche. It was very quiet as actually the whole day has been, probably because it's Sunday.
Further up the road we saw two long horned steer right beside the road. Scary guys. Next to the two steer was a buffalo!
Had a wonderful dinner at Rosas Tortilla Factory. What a colorful restaurant!
Definitely not England!

Couldn't resist stopping for this tree decorated with Sprite cans and a solar panel to light the bulbs at night. All this in the middle of nowhere.
