More wind...

We ran a bit over our 200 miles today... 266. We would have been in early, but got caught in a filling station... you would have thought the prices were going to raise dramatically in the next few minutes - there were cars and trucks trying to cut in front of each other and not much room to maneuver. We waited more than our turn and then had to wait for people who parked to run in and buy cigarettes to get back to their vehicles so we could get out. Ah, the life of leisure.

We had wind again today, along with some rain. Most of the time the wind was on our beam (that's crosswind for you landlubbers), but occasionally the road turned enough to become quartering. Highway 287 all day today... and a couple rest areas that are nicer than anything we've seen on the Interstates. That will give you and idea of what the scenery was like - I'm excited about the rest areas. ;-)

We're in an RV park (using that term loosely) that looks like it could use a front-end loader and a LOT of gravel... giant ruts, sloped sites, and BIG puddles that may or may not be over-your-head deep! It's another Passport America place, so the price is inexpensive. And they have 50 amp, which we'll probably need tonight - it's cold and windy.

Good thing the HH is lux and comfy.

We're heading for the Lake Whitney RV Community next to check out the RV home/port options.
