Only heard three trains last night. One before 10 PM and the other two after 5 AM, so either those were the only ones or I slept right through them. It was a late night so we didn't get going until 8:30. Still hope to make it 600 miles (something we haven't done yet)

At the NM scale we show are permits thru the window and are on our way. Not a whole lot of traffic today, or everyone is going 65 mph so no one catches up to us.

First stop is in Tucumcarri, I stop at the Flying J and put in what I hope is my final fuel. It's cheaper here than anywhere down the road. I put in 15 gallons and now my range says I should have 10 miles left when I get to my drop. We'll see how that holds. BB goes to the next exit and stops at a Shell. Their diesel is $.20 less than Flying J. We meet up there before heading out.

Next stop is Moriarty. Lots of places we could have stopped in town, 27 I think. But we went to the TA and the Burger King because we knew there was parking. Called after lunch to set up our drops for tomorrow.

Then to Grants. BB has to fuel again. This time at the Petro.

POE at the AZ line. It took us an hour today for just us. Those behind us weren't too happy. Normally we go to Flagstaff and down I-17 but the routing to Mesa takes us through Payson where we are supposed to wash the RV. That was today's problem. Their million dollar computer would not suggest a route and would not accept the route the people keyed in. Not sure what the issue is, but Google route's us around the logical route. Must be something going on that is not showing up where we can see it.

And because we spent an hour there, we did NOT make it to Payson tonight. So tomorrow we will have to up early and rolling. Not a whole lot of time to spare because we have two drops.

We stop at Tom and Suzie's Diner before heading to the motel. BB had chicken quesadilla's and I had the daily special, meat loaf. More than enough food. This place is not listed on TripAdvisor but they said they have been in town for 13 years and the last few at this location. It used to be a Pizza Hut but I don't remember when it changed. Wish they would have put it next to the motels. That place is still empty.

I noticed when I went by that the motel lot looked full. We had to park across the back of the building where there are not marked parking spots. Quality Inn is where we are.

One place there were a bunch of goats on the shoulder of the road grazing. Shortly after that there were cows grazing on the frontage road but on the correct side of the fence. Reminds me, back in KS it looked like someone had been mowing around a dead cow in the ditch ...
