It doesn't sound like I went very far today since I stayed in the same state but Texas is big! Actually, I intentionally planned my trip so I would drive a short day today to rest up for my week of training. The drive from Amarillo to Dallas took about 6 hours and quite frankly, wasn't very exciting. I missed the Rocky mountains and I just wanted to get through this part of my journey. Thankfully, I made it to Dallas with no problems and am happily settled into my room with a view.
This is the view of Dallas while driving into the city. I quickly realized I needed two hands on the wheel and maybe a few prayers. The jury is out on these Dallas drivers but they give east coast drivers a run for their money! 
On the sign advertising the rest stop, there was a smaller sign that said, "Tornado Shelter." I didn't even need to stop but I had to see the tornado shelter! 
And here it is! Thank goodness I didn't have to use it! Weather has been great the whole trip so far. Whew! 
This is what I first saw when I pulled into the rest stop in the middle of Texas. Yikes!
