October 6 - Roswell, NM to Vernon, TX

Barb - We were good friends with the RV today - drove 300+ miles from Roswell to Vernon. We just wanted to get some miles done and didn't have any sites picked out in this section of the country. However, we enjoyed two different "local food" meals! Ed picked up some breakfast burritos before we left Roswell and they were plentiful and delicious - he says they are even better with salsa, but I had mine plain. For dinner, we found a local restaurant in Vernon (close to the Oklahoma border) that had great catfish dinners.

We are undecided about the direction for part of Wednesday - the state park we really like for camping at Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas is closed for renovation, plus there is rain in the forecast. So tomorrow's blog will tell the story!

Ed - This was another travel day of around 300 + miles. We did not stop for lunch and just kept traveling until about 4:00 PM. Highway 70 was all good road, even if some of the stretches were a bit narrow. The wind was a factor a few times and did cause me to hold the steering wheel a bit tighter from time to time. I am still impressed by how well the RV holds the road even in higher cross winds.
