My Own Private Idaho

Well, my last ride…I’m hitchhiking for those that are not aware…dropped me off in Van Horn, TX at about 10:00pm last night. I was afraid that I would have to spend another night out in the weather, but while walking down the main drag I found a Christian shelter. Stays for individuals are limited to overnight once per week, but I was planning on hitting the road the next day anyway.

It was a small place, but they let me in the door after-hours, and even gave me a private room. I was allowed to shower in the morning, and there was fresh coffee and Life cereal for breakfast. Pretty nice for someone with only a few loose coins and the drive to start life again.
