We made it to TEXAS!!! Our final stop in the Lone star state was a pretty big city called Killeen, Texas, population 100,000 people. This place seemed like it was going to be a little whole in the middle of Texas, but it ended up be very urbanized and heavily populated. The reason being is because of Fort Hood, a large military base a couple miles down the road. About half the population was soldiers, so the other half consisted of the family of the soldiers. Even going out to eat at the steak house down there we could tell how their economy was heavily dependent on the soldiers (and their families) stationed there. After dinner James hooked us up with a place to crash, and all B.B and I could do was pass out to regain some energy for more road trip action the next day.
