We stopped for American breakfast in town and Vincenzo ate 1 out of 3 pancakes. The landscape is much different and the heat is starting to get drier. We stopped in Historic Fort Stockton to check out the fort- the largest statue of a roadrunner was just a bonus. Hunger took over and Israel asked some guy working on a house where a good restaurant was. The guy looked at him blankly so Israel said, "OK, where would YOU eat?" and he gave us directions to La Rosita, even though he told us the wrong name. He must eat there often. It was very pink and decorative and there was music that Israel deemed a propitious with regard to the food.
Then we went to the fort and took advantage of the interactive display. The fort had two buildings open, one was a holding cell for unruly or disobedient soldiers, and the other was a museum. The John Wayne wagon was also an unexpected surprise.
We proceeded to Roswell and our campground at the Bottomless Lakes State Park. As soon as we arrived we jumped into the lake, but found the bottom fairly easily. It was sooo refreshing but
the bugs were hungry for blood so we ran back and ate inside the camper.
