"Dallas/Ft Worth"

The last night in Dallas, Matt and I hit up a rodeo in Ft Worth. They called all the kids under 7 into the ring and lets them chase a duo of sheep around in circles. Now I am not sure if you've ever seen little kids playing soccer? Yes no? Where they all want to kick the ball, so they just surround it, a big group of them...? Yeaaaa..... it was just like that, but there wasn't a soccer ball...it was a sheep. A bunch of kids kicking a sheep... it was horrifying. I couldn't watch another minute of it. Matthew and I got up and left.

What else has been going on? Ummm.....drove to Carlsbad Caverns and watched Matt freak out over rock formations... "Ohhh, that's awesome! Look at that rock! Rock rock!" But seriously, Carlsbad is a magical place... if you take the natural entrance, you get to wind down into a cave of bats and beautiful cave walls... They let you explore 3 miles out of 100 miles of the cave. I am happy that place exists. We're now in El Paso - staying with a friend from our Highschool Art class. Her name is Lesley.... she is in the military. She is a Mom. I'm not used to staying with people that I know... Not sure if there are more or less expectations. All I know, is that Matt is happier here than any other place we've been.... .... so I guess that's a good thing.

I recall reading somewhere that the population of the whole world could fit inside Carlsbad Caverns (if people could be stacked like cordwood). Been there once, keep thinking need to go back.

I'd believe it... the place is so giant, there is no way to even imagine it...... it was funny seeing people walk around with disposable cameras. Because you know that they aren't going to get anything back worth looking at.
