Awake: 6:18am Temp 38 sleep 6+30 overcast overnight @ Amarillo, Texas.
Smooth roads continue on I-40 east but we have a cornering headwind today. We make a fuel stop @ Flying “J” in Sayre, Oklahoma: 159.8 gal @ $3.82 per gallon. Ouch again!
After topping our tank, we continue on I-40 to Henrietta, transition to US-route 75 north to Tulsa, then toll road I-44 to Miami, Oklahoma ….arriving @ the Newell campground @ 6:25pm. Our fuel stop was our only stop.
Today’s travel: 486 miles 8+48 time 72.1 gal used 5.8 mpg 55.3 avg speed.
Dinner: clam chowder, oyster crackers & a spinach salad.
DVD movie: “I married a Witch” with Fredric March, Veronica Lake, Robert Benchley, Susan Hayward, Cecil Kellaway, etc. Watching Veronica & Fredric perform together is a treat in this very pre-Bewitched farce. Look for Susan Hayward in a small role. 1942. Good entertainment as well as surprising mysterious video effects for the time period.
