We finally left Arizona and headed to Texas. Imagine our delight when we stopped at this gas station in Van Horn:
Can you read the words on the cooler?
Yes, Free Beer. Welcome to Texas!

Look how the grumpy guy from the bed of the Motel 6 has brightened! Great shots, Patagonia is gorgeous, but nothing rivals the beauty of free tecate! con limon?
If and when you get to Dallas, look me up. I'll make that *perfect* margarita for you. I'm rushing about right now, but will come back and explore. I think I'll like it. I know I like free beer, especially free Tecate con limon!
Once upon a glass or twelve of wine, Jacquie and Beth and Ellie got to talking. We decided that we were all enormously smart and clever and hilarious, and that it would be a crime not to share our unique talents with the world. We decided to start a blog together.
We needed a name, so Jacquie asked Beth: “What should we call a blog about meand you and Ellie?” And the rest, as they say, is history. We are having a blast writing this thing, and if there was any trepidation that we were only smart and clever and hilarious that night because of all the wine, our words here thus far have succinctly affirmed our mutual self-admiration.
What are you reading?
Ellie - Middlemarch, George Eliot. Finally
Jacquie - The Nightingale, Kristen Hannah

Free beer? Where the hell is that Motel 6 ice when you need it?
And, yes, Ellie, I had to recheck the name of the damn motel (again), I really think it should be Motel 8.
Ah, sí. Claro.
Thanks for stopping by my home of missing penguins! And your trip looks AWESOME.
Okay, that's a lie. I froze at "free beer" because such a miracle just proves the existence of the divine.
But I plan to inspect more of your trip when I recover.
