Onward to Colorado...
Aug. 18th, 2017 10:46 pmI awoke around 2:30 am and could not fall back asleep, so at 3:15 am, I got up, turned on the light in the room, and started the despeckling process, which took about an hour.
I moved my wake-up time appropriately and went back to bed, and fell asleep shortly.
Upon rising, I threw all my junk in the car and hit the road. It turned out I was just down the street from a McDonald's, so breakfast was spoken for.
The road to Amarillo went quickly, despite the dark clouds and intermittent rain. Interstate 40 going west also disappeared under my wheels rapidly. The most curious part of that leg of the trip was a segment only a few hundred yards long between mile markers 48 and 49 (if memory serves) where street lights stood in the median between the west and eastbound lanes.
And so it all passed: Clines Corners, Santa Fe, and so on, until I drove up the driveway in Pagosa at a few minutes past five in the afternoon.
Two very long days of driving. Tomorrow is an off day, and you'll hear no complaints from me.
Cheers...
