That's how many deer we saw this evening while driving through the state park we're staying in.

We are working our way across Texas, having left Hot Springs a couple of days ago.  We are trying to stay mostly in state parks, since we just bought the yearly pass and want to make sure we get our money's worth. Plus, I am trying to get more hiking done, and sometimes the state parks are a good place to do that.
Right now we're outside of Dallas, in a small town called Jacksboro.  Tomorrow we're going to a town called Loving.  Its the town that Paul's dad is from.
