Eating Across Texas

One thing you find out as you travel the USA, you just never know where you will find a good place to eat. On our trip East, after going through El Paso on Sunday, we needed some lunch. Not much in that part of Texas, we pulled into Sierra Blanca, a small town that had seen better days, many boarded up buildings. On the far edge of town (actually had to turn around at that point), we see Michael's. Doesn't look like much, but Oh, the Food was GOOD.






The next day, as we approached Big Spring, TX, saw a billboard for "Hog Heaven BBQ House". Ok, we are hungry, and like BBQ. Again, doesn't look like much, but BUSY. The BBQ brisket is to die for - so tender & tasty. Turns out they have a Party Barn across the street & do catering. So we can recommend either place for any one traveling on 10 or 20 in Texas.



Oh, and as a little add-on, here is a picture of Rich & Leslie, as they set off on Leslie's first ride on the motorcycle!

So is this when you were traveling through TX or have you left MA and are heading back Southwest? I had to check twice to be sure I was reading the right blog:-)

No, No, just catching up on some of the postings I've been planning.

The 'hole in the wall' places are usually the best to eat at.

Glad to see you're making time to catch up. That B-B-Q sounds great.

FYI - Leslie now has a 'new' helmet, and it is pink. :)
