Roadtrip!! 2009 family vacation

We started our 2 week vac off in Crowell, TX on our way to Amarillo. I took Cynde and the kids on a tour of the 3RF Comanche Springs Astronomy Campus and introduced them to the wonderful Longhorn Ranch Steakhouse just west of Crowell.

Cynde and the anxious-to-leave-town kids.


Sunset as we head toward Amarillo. We later learned that the storm to the right of the sunset produced several tornadoes.


Nice sunset from Paducah, TX.


Thank goodness for DVD technology. Movie kept the kids quiet.
