Hi Gang,
We are planning on heading out this summer to New Mexico and on up into Colorado. Of course, the longest leg of the trip is getting away from Austin and out of our great state. What I am looking for is camping areas in the western panhandle area, between Lubbock and Clovis, NM that anyone is aware of.
We travel slowly in our old VW Westfalia, just enjoying the journey, so as Day one nears and end, I was hoping we could find a park somewhere that someone may be familair with in that area along US 84.
It's an area of our state that seems to be void of Texas State parks, I guess because of the remoteness.
Thanks
Gary
