Happy Birthday to Jaxon. 5 years old today…:). He’s a beautiful boy…:) Last nights camp site was very nice. We had a young couple from Maryland with a Nissan SUV and a rooftop tent beside us on one side and a single young guy on the other. The single chap…
I am in big trouble, as I am behind with the blog. Dennis wants to write today’s and I haven’t started yesterday’s yet. Last night I spent all evening organising flights and making arrangements for us to go back to the UK for 2 weeks in the middle of September.…
We made the decision yesterday to take a day off and explore this astounding natural phenomenon. Driving in last afternoon we are on a sealed road with forest on both sides of the road. Then, like another world appears, glimpsing this spectacular chasm beside us. We both went…WOW!!! Our camp…
A truly fabulous day. Thanks to the wonders of nature. After we had checked the Caranex, to ensure no rattle snakes had crept in and taken up residence during the night, we were up nice and early. On the road by 9.20, we were soon in red rock country and…
Happy Birthday Natsuki…:) I ran a few checks over the mechanicals last night and changed the fuel filter. I mentioned earlier that the power is down a bit and I noticed there’s exhaust smoke under load. The camp site last night was so quiet. Not many campers and they were…
The thing about this journey is no two days are the same and the events of the day are rarely predictable. This morning was one of those unexpected occasions. We started by driving through the town to have a look at Grants. It was larger than we had thought when…
Waking around 7am. Breakfast made in the Landy and we are on our way by 9am. The first stop was a car museum, just down the road. It’s nothing flash but a lot of old ’50’s & ’60’s memorabilia. There were a couple of nicely prepared cars. One a…
Another long, hot day. The drive from Pampa to Amarillo took us about an hour and 20 minutes. This was serious oil country with tanks, pipes and various installations and tankers and trains transporting oil from here. It is dead flat, as far as the eye can see. Amarillo doesn’t…
We didn’t have a great sleep last night, but it’s a great camp site. I have to say, I liked the appearance and feel of Oklahoma City. Pop. 650,000. Brick is strongly featured. As Jen said, the entry into the city from the east was short and easy. The exit…
Last night the motel manager was very chatty. I think he was bored, as there were few guests at the motel. He told me we were the most interesting guests he had had to stay! Later he was talking to Dennis and, apart from being an avid Trump supporter because…
