Wichita Falls

Got up very early and decided we could head into Santa Fe for a quick breakfast at The Pantry at 0630 before we headed east.  We were unhooked, and off and running by 0745.  We tearfully left the mountains, the altitude, and the cool behind.  Fueled in Amarillo (diesel prices have come down since we left), and had planned to stop at a neat campground at Goodlett, TX where we had stayed years ago called Old Town Cotton Gin RV Park.  A pristene oasis with a restored cotton gin, just off 287 pretty much in the middle of nowhere, but it was only 3pm.  We opted to drive on to Wichita Falls, another 88 miles.  Good decision, as we were all in and hooked up at the Wichita Falls RV Park by 5:30pm, and we only have about 250 miles to Kelly and Todd's tomorrow.
It was a good drive, great weather, not too windy.  Jan and I talked about the things we need to get done when we get back, and things to do with the motorhome before we retire.  We also are roughing out plans for next year after the R-Day at the end of Feb.
