Clovis New Mexico to Pampa, TX. Big Texan Steak House in the middle..

I set the alarm for 0445 so I could get up and start the coffee and wake the hubby at 0500.  We wanted to get an early start so we could make some miles today towards Pawhuska, OK.  

Had our coffee, banana bread and then visited with our blogging friends to see what everyone is doing.  Once that was done we had our showers and got ready to walk to the laundry to wash a couple of loads of clothes.  There's not many people in the park so it was nice to see 4 washers and 4 dryers.  We took 3 but knew we would be ok as it was before 0730.  While they washed we went back to the trailer and I worked on finishing up some things inside. 

Time to put in the dryers not bad ($1.00 for drying, $1.50 for washing).  Ok then we figured half and hour for drying. Plenty of time to make breakfast and get things ready for moving on.  When we went back to the laundry we found 2 dryers looked like they hadn't even been turned on. We knew they were as they were still working when we got there.  Upon looking inside the 2 we could see where it looked like the back venting had caught fire! 

Patsy, we though of you when we first walked in to the laundry area.  Lint, dirt and dryer sheets were everywhere! Ken cleaned the lint filters and it looked like they hadn't been cleaned for months! 

Definitely no pride of ownership here! 

This was the best of the 3...

This was horrible!

This was just there and had been for awhile as it was dirty! No place to
fold clothes..

No wonder the insides burned or whatever as there was no way the machines could breathe.  We wasted $2.00 and time!! Time was the biggest issue as we were supposed to be on the road! So we loaded the wet clothes into the dryer that worked and 45 minutes later even those weren't dry totally. 

The office building..never could see in the bathrooms as I
didn't have a code. 

Never did see or hear from Frances the manager.  We put a
check for the $18.00 Passport America through the slot in
the door this am before leaving. 

For $18.00 Passport America not a bad price to spend the night.
To think they want $35.00 regular price is way much!

 Ken had had enough so we brought the damp clothes into the Mansion and laid them on the bed..hoping the sun would dry them enough while we were on the road. 

A great ride on Highway 60 from Clovis to Amarillo.  Just random pictures below of our drive. 

Their claim to fame as"The Beef Capitol of the World"

America, Texas and a little wind LOL..

A cute little fixer upper

As we neared Amarillo Ken said "Well, I guess we shouldn't stop at the Big Texan"  I figured that.  The more we talked it was decided that if he got a spot we'd stop and have linner as it was nearing 1400.  It's tradition that we stop there every time we hit Amarillo.  He got a nice spot in with the truckers and we went inside. Surprisingly with all the people there we got seated in a booth right away. Just too yummy! It's really good food and great service.  The beer and wine were pretty good too! LOL. On the way out Ken bought a growler of Rattlesnake IPA  that they make in their brewery.  

Rattlesnake IPA and Chardonnay..:)
After all it's special..right?! 

Wendy, thought you would like this light :)

Yummy, my burger, got rid of the bun  and my salad

The Big Texan! 

Love this picture..one she's pretty 

then you look from a different angle! AHH. LOL..

We got on the road taking Highway 60 out of town. About an hour north (or east) of Amarillo is the good sized town of Pampa, TX.  We are at Hobart Street Park.  They actually have about 5 RV sites that you can stay in for FREE.  Electric and water are available along with picnic table and bar b q. The only drawback for some (not us) it is right near the railroad tracks and there are trains..lots of them. Dump station and potable water are available too. You can stay for 1 night and if you want to extend just go to the office which is right across the street. Their local police station is right across the road :) So far we are the only ones here! 

Not a donation box anywhere..

He greets you going into one town, I forget which one

We're here! 

So here we are, Ken is working on battery stuff and I figured I'd get a head start on the blog. 

Thank you Pampa, Texas for hosting us! 

We had an awesome day just enjoying the beautiful farmlands and little cities from the border or New Mexico into the panhandle of Texas. We sure are blessed to enjoy traveling across America! What a wonderful retirement! 💗

Tomorrow we hope to get an early start to Osage County State Park where we've stayed 3 time now.  Monday we'll head into Pawhuska home of Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond and see what's new in town. Tuesday we'll head out and work our way to Tennessee. 

Have a great night! Happy Hour time, earlier didn't count! haha. 

Adam sent a few pictures from his trip to Yosemite with a few friends.  These kids are crazy!
