One more row and I'm done with the hood part of my cape!!
Blasted thing... Took over two weeks to finally settle on a crochet pattern for it. Had to rip out a few hours of crochet work several times.
Well, its not THAT bad, but its....... not good either. Id take you to some of the nicer spots if you wanted to swim..... but..... mostly its just the locals landfil and dump. Of course you wont see this on any travel brochure.
The waves are a joke, the sand is gross looking although part of its looking nasty is due to river run off into the gulf of mexico. So, unlike the pristine beaches elsewhere, you have river sediment mixing with what is the normal sand of other beaches and you get a brown...... muck.
The other stuff that the locals and tourists do to it doesn't help any. If California or Florida is the paradise of beaches. Galveston is Chernobyl.
It can look okay-good in some places if you know where to go, but over all...... not so much.
Luckily there are other places to have fun around here.
Well, I wouldn't worry about missing the view of the mountains while driving at night as, that would be one of the places I would have the whim to stick around for. I've loved the mountains since I went to San Diego in my early 20s.... since then...
Yeah, I might miss some scenery at night, but if its scenery Id wanna stick around for and see, Id know it by the night drive.
However, I think if I hit New Mexico and had the money and time. Id likely get a horse and simply ride the trails of the old west like that of Billy the Kid and others. Simply park my many horse powers and calmy accept one HP til I got back. (Yeah, I know city boy on a horse. Im not GOOD at it, however I have rode one before so I already know what to expect.)
Then Id spend about a week showering after all the dirt and all..... then get back in my car and drive to the next spot.
It's kind of nice to even just walk along side one as the sun is setting, and listening to the waves. 
It's so cool how you could travel through one state and see one "type" of mountain, then when you hit the next state, they are kind of different. It's pretty fun driving through them too, even at night.
] At least you have a better idea of what type of guy would be healthy for you to date. I would imagine when you do start to date, it will be a lot more enjoyable than your previous relationships. Oh, and a trip to England/Europe is one of the best remedies for forgetting about being single (It worked for me a few times, lol).
The coming week and my back. I am going to Colorado with my best friend to help out with a photo shoot. I'm excited about it but my back is acting up. I didn't even get to go to church this morning.
