TUESDAY MARCH 4/08
<< Haskell, Texas
I cautiously peeked out the motorhome window this morning to see if we had been carried off in a spaceship to another planet in the night, but alas, there was Roswell's Wal-Mart & I knew we hadn't left the parking lot:(( So, without further ado, we walked over to the store & cruised a few isles before leaving town. Result.... 1 jar of peanut butter.
We were on the road heading east on highway 380 by 7:30 with the heater going full blast. Brrrr, another cold morning but nowhere near as cold as our home in Canada right now. We had originally planed to head northeast up # 70 to Amarillo but due to the colder weather in the north we decided at the last minute to stay further south & take 380 right across New Mexico, Texas, & most of Arkansas. This is a great highway with hardly any traffic, long straight stretches, & rest stops along the way. Why drive an interstate when there are great highways like this available. It's actually our 3rd encounter with this great road in the last 4 years but first time heading east on it. The southwest tailwind was soooooo strong that I almost had to ride the brakes all the way across the Texas panhandle. Big help with the gas mileage for sure. Popped into a McDonald's in Brownfield, Texas & found out they had Wifi so brought the laptop in & were able to get caught up on emails, weather reports, the blog, etc. Pulled into the little town of Haskell later & found a local RV friendly park that had electricity & water so we're here for the night. Weather is sooooooooooooo bad back home that we may have to stay here for awhile. Or, maybe move a little further east to Texarkana. It's really not too scenic here because we are out on the plains & it's very, very, flat with very few trees. We'll decide in the morning........
