Another Long Day

We Are We Today

After posting last night, we found out that we couldn’t stay at the Sam’s Club. So, after grabbing something to eat, we moved back a couple of miles to the Welcome Center.  

Up this morning at 6, we were on the road at ten after seven, heading west on I-30. For the most part I would rate this road at an 8 out of 10. Starting about 50 miles east of Dallas, we ran into construction which carried on thru Dallas. Traffic moved right along with one slow down between exits 49A to 47, this section is where my rating drops to a 7 out of 10.

Somewhere near Walsh Tx., I-30 becomes I-20, I think this has to be the smoothest Interstate we have been on in a long time. I am giving this interstate a rating of 9.5 out of 10. When opening up cupboards and the frig after we stopped, Pat said there was one thing out of place.

So here we sit In Midland Tx. 511 miles from our start this morning. It was another long day, with mostly clear skies. We started out at 379 ft. above sea level to top out at just over 2800 ft and down to 2782 ft here.

Thanks for checking in, until the next time, take care. Don’t forget to check out Pat’s Blog.

  1. You're near a lot of attractions. The Carlsbad Caverns, Roswell and the White Sands NP outside of Alamogordo. Lots of things to see and do.
    Be Safe and Enjoy the adventure.

    It's about time.

  2. We followed behind for about half of your miles, we stopped at the WB Rest Area at Strawn. We did also stop at the Hopkins RA , we really like these places. I agree about the I-20/30 connection being smooth and the road very good there. Safe travels as you continue to move along.
