Off the main road






There are so many things about America that I love and adore. I love the diversity, the double standards, the greasy food, and the fact that sometimes you just don't know what's around the bend.

I'm really fascinated by small town America. It's as if time stands still in some of those places.

We've seen a lot of odd spots on our trip. One of my favorite... the little town of Alanreed, Texas. It has a motel/gas station/post office/convenience store. The sign in the window proudly proclaims that the town's population consists of: 52 people, 104 dogs, 88 cats, 2 skunks and a few snakes.

When he read that, Jamie got in a hurry and wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. He said he didn't want us to get stuck there. (But if we did, we'd have one helluva adventure!)
