Muleshoe, Texas.
July 1997.
Didn't have anywhere particular to go. Flew to Austin to meet a friend. I wanted to go on a roadtrip, he had a car. He said, "Ok." We drove to El Paso, to Albequerque NM, to Taos, to Lubbock.....
Our favorite place was Muleshoe, Texas. The lady at the desk of the local motel had a face like the grandmother you missed, the mother you wish you had, the nice nun at the local catholic school, the one you could never say no to as all she was considering was your comfort and happiness. Good saleswoman. We stayed for 2 days.
I married my friend 4 years later.
