We’re leaving on a road trip to Texas. To the southern border of Texas, near Mexico. It’s a long ways and a few days journey we figure. Our friends who live in Plymouth, Minnesota invited us to come visit them in their Texas home, which they bought a few years ago as a place to go to escape winter.
One day last fall, while on a bike ride with other Northfield friends, we mentioned we were going to plan a trip to Texas. They mentioned they have Minnesota friends who just bought a place in southern Texas and had invited them down for a visit too. So we got out the map and discovered the two snowbird couples live about 15 miles from each other in Southern Texas (they, of course, don’t know each other).
We found that exciting and decided to plan a road trip together to make the journey more fun. So off we go – 1,456 miles. They’ll drop us off at our friend’s doorstep and continue on to their friend’s house and then pick us up for the ride back home.
Texas here we come.
Safe travels! Looking forward to pictures and updates!
We’ll have to compare stories of car trip verses the Amish bus trip.
That’s a long trip. But I know you’re up to the adventure. Enjoy and take lots of pix to share your many stories.
Safe travels.
Thanks Audrey.
Have a great time!

Thank you!
That is almost as far as San Diego , which was about 2100.
I am so interested in maps of any where in the world .
I didn’t realize your road trip was 2100 miles.
I like maps too, and this time we got the ones we wanted ahead of time.
