Made it home. 3727.6 miles Hot Springs, AR to Anderson, SC was 691 today. Next trip is Labor Day weekend for the NASCAR race in Darlington, SC.

Looks as if you’ve made use of your 560 Ultra. Great pics to go with your write up. Hope you have many more nights in it.

Made it to Hot Springs. I’m glad they do reservations online for Gulpha Gorge campground. Right behind our campsite is a mini waterfall. Long day tomorrow including Atlanta, but we’ll be home.

That has been our experience too. Been a while since I got hit up like that at a gas station. The first was in his work and when he stopped I wondered if I had done something wrong pulling around to the pump.

Yes it was a metal sign. We stopped for gas in Borger, TX up in the panhandle and I couldn’t get started pumping gas. Three different guys came up to me asking about it. Mary Ellen is flinging brochures at them as we can get gas & go to the bathroom. The one guy didn’t believe when I told him we...

Made it to Foss State Park in Oklahoma. Beautiful drive & I feel like I’m home. 98, humidity like crazy & the grass is Bermuda in the campground. Nice campsite.

Last day in New Mexico. Went over see Taos Pueblo which was really interesting to see with this being a Pueblo community with people still living in it. Tomorrow, we begin the slog home. Camping at Foss State Park in Oklahoma tomorrow night.

Did a little hiking this morning on the Columbine Creek Trail. And found a delicious breakfast burrito at Shotgun Willie’s.

I’m going to miss 45 degree mornings when we leave New Mexico on Tuesday. Back to the bowl of soup that is the South well into late September.

Parade in Red River, NM. We are cheating here and have a cabin. Couldn’t get a campsite at any place with showers. Tall Pine Resort was willing to let us park the camper here so it’s hooked up to our solar panel down at the office. We are in a 90 year old cabin. We wanted to come here for a...

Hope everyone has had a nice Independence Day. We did the parade in Red River, NM which was a lot of fun. The place we are staying in here grilled hot dogs for everyone.

Went to Santa Fe & ate great food & bought from the Native Americans who sell their jewelry & other stuff in the Plaza there. I got a belt buckle & Mary Ellen got two bracelets & a necklace. Move north to Red River tomorrow.

Where did you camp in the Smokies?

Went up to Bandalier National Monument today. Did a little hiking. Elevation is a killer. Nice place.

Campground has a pollinator garden

Made it to Cochiti Campground near Santa Fe, NM. Nice campground. Nice temps too. Upper 60s & breezy too. We won’t see this until October back home. 3 nights here so the big drives are done until we head for home.

Our 2012 Outback would lose oil too.

I remember the movie & the signs for that place when we came through 9 years ago. When I was young, I might have tried it. At 57, no way. I know my limits. After that big lunch yesterday, I didn’t eat supper.

Lots of cows in Oklahoma. Came by a lot feed lots once we off the interstate. Roads bad in the Memphis area. Some road construction near Oklahoma City. Car is doing great. This one has the 4 with the turbo. Our old one had the 6. The suspension on this tows better. Paying $3.49- $3.89 for...

Made it to the Texas panhandle near Amarillo. Sanford-Yake campground on Lake Meredith. Found some great chicken fried steak at the Around the Corner Cafe in Okemah, OK for lunch.
