Longview, TX

We got here yesterday about 3pm.  A straightforward trip of about 260 miles.  We had debated what route to take.  On our way west from here we cut up north around the Dallas/Fort Worth area to join 287 in Henrietta.  We had initially thought we would go much nearer the cities since it was Sunday, but decided to cut across 380.  Never again!  Definitely one of the worst roads we have been on.  Rough, bumpy, and I swear we caught every light, about a million, on the way over to join 69 south to the Interstate(20).
It got hotter and hotter as we got closer to Longview, and was a balmy 105 when we got here.  Yup, vacation is winding down.  We had a good visit and dinner with our grandkids, and Kelly and Todd, of course.
