I left Interstate 40 at Tucumcari and am now on Highway 54, staying the night in a motel in Dalhart, Texas.
It's hot here. Well, it was only 80 degrees but that's hot for somebody who lives on the coast where a really hot day is 70.
It looks like if I take Highway 385 north I'll go through that small strip of Oklahoma into Colorado, then east into Kansas. I can be in 4 states in one day.
The motel is pretty nice and has the usual TV. I tried watching it for a while but those commercials drive me nuts! I'm glad we don't have a TV hookup at home.
Almost time for the free breakfast. Cereal and coffee. Oh boy.
Careful, Gene! If you continue on Highway 54, you'll pass through Hooker, Oklahoma. No idea what might be there but it doesn't sound healthy...
ReplyDeleteI successfully passed the turnoff. The sign pointed left to Liberal and right to Hooker.
ReplyDeleteWho says the DOT down there doesn't have a sense of humor?
