Hot, but I'm not complaining
Wow what a difference 2 days and 1,200 Kilometers south make. Today it was foggy in the morning and by 11.am the Van was recording an outside temp of 22 degrees C. thats 77degrees for the rest of the world. At 1 it was 25C. (80 degrees F.) and that was with a terrific wind blowing which should of make the gauge register cooler. It sure seemed hotter in the Van. Of course I still had on winter style clothes. Had shed my boots but not my long t-shirt and warm winter vest. Seems like a long drive today, but did stop often. Guess it was because I drove through 3 bigger cities, and even though it was a Saturday there seemed to be a lot of traffic. Springfield Missouri wasn't too bad. Tulsa Oklahoma , was a little more complicated with major roads coming and going off the I 44. Tulsa is the second largest city in Oklahoma. Didn't much like Oklahoma City at all. All my off ramps were on the left side . Except the last one which was on the right to get on I 40 .Have stopped at a Comfort Inn in El Reno Oklahoma. Don't let the name fool you. It is just a small speck on the map. Will pass nthrough Amarilla Texas and Alberquerque New Mexico, tomorrow. I think the last one is a little more complicated as well but with my trusty Martha (GPS) And a Sunday to make things easier, it should be a breeze. Well I am off to find some supper than to bed after a quick dip in the hot tub and pool.
