It's evening in Amarillo

Well, I wrote last night and then the computer decided it didn't want to cooperate so it disappeared!

We left last Friday from Phoenix and drove to Albuerqueque...on the way to Albuerqueque we heard weather reports of the snows in this area....so on Saturday morning before we unhooked we checked the road conditions..... I-40 was closed from outside of Santa Rosa to the Texas line..... we decided to stay another day in Alb. and leave this am.... we are glad we did as we got to go downtown to "Old Town" Albuerqueque and walk around at the old buildings and shops..... such a neat area.
We found a Chili's for dinner and came home..... watching the games on TV....

This morning we left bright and early and wondered how much snow we would get into but the roads were fantastic! They were all clear and not much snow to speak of at all...only in the higher hills and ditches were small amounts...... But the wind began to blow when we were almost to Amarillo. Boy did it blow! Gusts to about 47mph..... The RV park we are at is very nice and we have a huge space...... It's called the Amarillo RV Ranch...... nice nice park!

We will leave here early in the morning and get to Texoma around noon we hope.....we have about 350 miles to go..... the wind is supposed to blow again tomorrow so we will want to get an early start. Stay tuned! The traffic on this highway is alot of truckers and RV's..... mostly from Minnesota!

So that about catches us up for this time and its time to relax awhile.....
Until next time!
