Tuesday May 6th 2014

 

Well I will have to say that this has been one windy trip!!  I decided to slow down some.  Instead of driving 62MPH I slowed down to 55-57MPH.  Gas mileage went from 7 or 8 up to 9 – 10 MPG!!!  Doesn’t sound like much but that is better than a 10% increase in gas mileage and that makes me very happy.  We also got gas in Oklahoma City for $3.19 a gallon, which is the cheapest that I’ve seen on this trip and probably this year.

We stopped at a campground in Carlsbad NM which was pretty nice, expensive, but nice.

We drove from Carlsbad to Amarillo TX.  Long and windy drive.  The PA campground we stayed at isn’t a PA campground anymore.  Neither was the one in Carlsbad.  What a bummer.

Thought this was cute, Beverly Hillbillies truck I guess.  This was in Amarillo.

We stopped last night after passing a KOA and not much else.  This was a nice campground in Seminole OK or close to it.  We happened to see the sign and pulled off.  I like this campground.  It isn’t expensive but the first campground I have been in that has a cement pad for the camper.  Other campgrounds have everything cement and blacktop but this is really nice and level!

This is part of a restaurant and had a hard time finding a place to pay!

This is kind of early!!  Here is a shot of the sunrise that God provided……

We are traveling on to Ketchum OK today.  This wind is already blowing about 25 MPH and is going to be a hard drive until we head North.

Think I will try to post this, we have Wifi but not sure how good it works…. Bye Y’all…
