It's roughly 1600 mile from Albuquerque to home. We are dividing that into four days of driving. The first day was the last of the mountains, desert, and treeless plain. New Mexico and the Texas panhandle are pretty bleak. Vega, Texas now must have 100 large wind turbines. I don't think they were there five years ago. Night one was spent at the Double D outside Texola, Oklahoma. A nice small park on the state line, maybe 12 sites, and only four guests. Pretty solitary for even a country boy. The 380Auto stayed closer than usual tonight.
Day two we started with Okie prairie, another 50 wind turbines, 25mph crosswinds, cattle trucks, and things finally start greening up after Tulsa and the $20 Turnpike. Back to heavier traffic and morons charging out in front of you at on ramps. Night two is the Red Barn in Carthage, Missouri; home of Precious Moments. Another nice park. Tommorrow is the first day of fall plus a full moon tonight makes it a Super Fall Moon I believe.
