After a quick stop at Sportsmobile to ask three more questions, we headed north again. I am not happy that my butt remembers this seat but it is good to be headed out of this heat. I have not been watching the weather at home because I didn’t want to know how pleasant it might be.
Back to the topic of GPS. Not having had one before, I don’t know what is standard so this may be old stuff to some of you but one of the things I like is that it helps us anticipate a little. For instance, if we will be turning onto a multi-lane road then turning left it will say, “Turn right on X then keep left.” Knowing that we are to keep left means we wait for a larger hole in the traffic before making the turn so we can get across how ever many lanes there are.

Apparently, it is going to be a very long drive home. I am so
B O R E D !
Wish I could read/write more than a few sentences at a time without getting sick.
If this is going to become a regular route for me during snowbird season I am going to make it a point to stop at some of these towns along the way to visit their sights. Many towns have signs touting their attractions which could help change up the trip by stopping at different towns each time. Can’t do that this trip though, need to be back for a doctor appointment. Plus don’t want to spend more money on restaurants and motels. This trip is costing enough as it is.

Another Comfort Inn tonight. Nothing broken or missing from the room. What happened? Apparently Moore, Oklahoma, should be a regular stop. It’s even cheaper than some of the other Comfort Inns we’ve stayed at this trip. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop. Guess I got cynical about this chain. Have to watch that. Especially since the free internet at this one comes up quickly without making me sign in at all let alone the three times I sometimes had to try at the last one. All that makes heading home even better.
Also better is that the temperatures are dropping as we head north. We no longer instantly melt when we open the car doors at a food or gas stop.
We make make it home still sane after all.
TTYL,

Sure am glad you found a Comfort Inn that actually is comfortable. We’re north but our temps aren’t much cooler. However, the weatherman is saying cooler this week. For once, I hope he’s right (but probably not).
Can’t imagine living without the GPS after having it. I like the ones that let you know the speed limit and what lane to be in. The good thing is when you head south again the weather should be cooler and you’ll have a new rig to drive.
Great idea about keeping your eyes open as you travel that route. Good to know you found one Inn that you can mark down as good.
