I am sure we are not the only folks that are feeling that way. I pulled in to a roadside stop...Buckee's. They are new to Texas. It is a place where you can actually get healthy road food along with the usual tourist goodies and gas. I don't mind plugging them-they are pretty good if you aren't adventurous about road food. I was road weary and we needed gas. Some one had placed a sticker on the pump. it said Bend Over (the B O capitalized and the O like Obama's campaign sign)....Bend Over, change is coming. I am sad to say I agree these days. The majority of the economic team needs to be canned, and other programs don't go far enough. He's copped out and is playing it safe for re-election. But many of his base may not show up for the party this time around. But that is just MHO.



Side note-We packed our own food but did get some real Czech koala ches from West, Texas. West is a town founded by Czech immigrants. First time I ever went there-the town signs were all in Czech and so was the daily newspaper. The town has a beautiful old church. The folks at the bakery said business was down a tad, but they have been in biz since the early 20's. People that know always head to the Village Bakery to get fresh Czech pastries and hot local news.
