Another year's vacation sneaks up on us! Although we had told everyone we were going to the Florida Keys this year, our first night out was in Tucumcari, New Mexico!
We had gone places for the weekend for the last month, so it was nice to actually spend a weekend at home. So, we took it easy on Saturday and gradually packed the camper on Sunday. Kathy was loading her clothes after dark!
Got up as usual on Monday morning, packed the food and headed to the library to do a couple of quick things on the way out of town (and borrow some movies!). A few more Great Bend errands and we were on the road, finally, heading toward California. We're entitled to change our minds! Lunch was on the run as we drove along: some of our favorites from Mary's Kitchen Burritos in Great Bend! (Chiles relleno for Kathy and a bistec for Chris). It won't be the last Mexican food we have on this vacation...
Rather an uneventful trip, unless you count changing timezones!
Supper in Dalhart, Texas, at one of the many Mexican restaurants. We really liked the freshly-mad salsa they served. Unfortunately we can't remember the exact name! There at least three Mexican restaurants in Dalhart starting with a "P"; it's one of those we think!
Drove a long stretch of really deserted road from Dalhart to Tucumcari in the dark. Many semis seem to travel that way however; at least that's what we mostly saw!
Bedtime found us a the KOA in Tucumcari.
