A Ride in the Chariot

I've been telling people that I feel like our new truck is my chariot and that my prince is driving me around. :-) In a way, I do feel that way. The truck is so huge it could be a modern-day chariot, and since I feel married to my very own Prince Charming, then it all just fits, right?

So . . . we've had the truck for a week and haven't gone far enough yet, so we're on a road trip to South Padre Island. :-) It's about 60 miles to the east of where we live. We left about 3 o'clock this afternoon. There was a front blowing in, and as we got further down the Valley, the winds got stronger. There was some light rain along the way, but it was dry when we got to the Island.



We drove up the Island to Blackbeard's, ate a really good meal, then drove back home. The truck handled well - it was a nice, smooth ride the whole way. And my prince delivered me back to our castle safe and sound.
