It's 7:30pm Central and we have been on the road since just before 9am Mountain. Dennis has battled high winds and bumpy roads but he's been a trooper! He's been jamming to music on his MP3 player and sitting in the driver's seat all day. We spotted a Flying J truck stop just before we got on the last leg of our planned journey for today, so we ducked in and filled up. When we got out of the RV, it was HORRIBLY humid. We all agree, sleeping with no A/C in a Walmart parking lot is not going to cut it tonight. I found an RV park 1/2 mile down the road from Walmart on Route 66 and I gave them a call. They have 1 full-hook up spot left and the guy is waiting for us! Based on the rates posted on their web site, it looks cheap, too. I don't care if it's $100/night, it's worth it! A/C and a hot shower tonight sounds AWESOME!!
We also are stunned by the iron-rich dirt here in Oklahoma. All of the dirt that's exposed from greenery is RED just like the red rocks of Sedona! It's quite beautiful with all of the green grass, trees, etc. Who knew?! We sure didn't!
We are almost to the RV Park. We traveled farther today than we planned so if we can do the same tomorrow and get deep into Illinois, it will make Monday a breeze! Happy Trails!!
