A full day’s drive today.
Stopped of to see a Cadilac farm.
Ended up in Santa Rosa NM Still haven’t seen any aliens but did manage to find one of the hours we lost last week.
We are now heading home. ‘Go west’ etc.
A short drive today as we finally reached Greensburg KY. We drove to the cabins to see what they were like, then went to the city hall to make our booking.
The cabin came complete with air con and a smell of wet dog. Hopefully it’s only on the porch.
After unloading the car we drive round to Ro’s. We have become Americanised as it’s next door to where we are staying. So it was out the drive from the cabin and a u-turn on the road and up the next drive.
We found apartment 2 and I knocked on the door, no reply. I tried again, still no reply. So we head back to the car we discovered that I had been knocking at the wrong door. Luckily we didn’t disturb anyone.
We spent the afternoon and evening chatting to Ro, Larry and Mel.
After several days of driving we have finally decided to stop for the night and to go out on the town. Luckily we have stopped in Nashville.
The main street is one long row of bars each one having a different sound resonating from it, one even had a barbers chair.
After several drinks and a meal we weaved our way back to the hotel.
Another full day of driving. Found an hotel for the evening and asked about the local restaurant. They said it was quite good and informed would need to drive.
We drove out the carpark turning left, drove one block to a mainish road and the restaurant was there, Right in front of us.
After a lot of umming and ahhing we finally decided to miss out New Orleans and to head straight to Kentucky. We stopped off at Waco to see some Mammoths. Petrified as they weren’t fossils. Also stopped off at a ‘ghost town’ at Guene, but there were too many people about and the ghosts didn’t appear.
Again we are driving through Texas, will this state ever end.
Whilst driving along minding my own business what looked like a plastic bag suddenly lifted up off the ground and in a swirling motion rose into the air. The next second the car shook and the bonnet vibrated, looking as if it was about to burst open. Then just as it suddenly started it was all over.
The only thing I can think was that it was a mini tornado. We check the dash cam at our hotel, but again it missed the action. Was this just another coincident or are they trying to take us out after seeing their secret rocket.
Well here’s today’s route for anyone is following us.
Today was a big drive. We started in Arizona and finished in Texas, driving straight through New Mixico.
The main bit of interest today was on entering Texas. We were dfiving towards a storm, which appeared to be very heavy with lightening. We were stopped by Border Control and had to show our passport, as these were safely stored out of reach were asked to pull over. Jo retrieved them and after a 10 minute delay we were on our way again. The upside of the stop was that the storm had passed and the road was already drying out.
Today started well with a couple of walks into the desert before breakfast. Why before breakfast? Well by 8.30 A.M. it was getting a bit warm, warmer than our hottest day in France.
Then after eating and packing the car it was back on the road again driving across the Arizona desert. While driving we were :-
Unfortunately I forgot to press record on my tracking app. so no route for today.
