Amarillo, TX

We are getting close to our Oklahoma City destination (270 miles to go). We have had a great trip so far. Yesterday we were in Moriarty, NM, and we visited RV Sales and saw Ralph and Kathy Chowning and some other Excel owners we had never met before. We had a great visit and Tom was able to spend his gift certificate on things he just couldn't live without. Today after doing our water aerobics and having breakfast, we headed east to Amarillo. We arrived in time to have a late lunch at The Big Texan. You may have heard of it - they offer a free steak if you can eat it in 1 hour. It's only 72 oz. or 4.5 lbs!!!! No, Tom didn't try to do it. We hoped that someone would be there trying for it, but no such luck. We had a great lunch and enjoyed the circus-like atmosphere very much. After lunch, we ran a couple of errands then checked into our motel. We decided to just kick back and have a quiet evening as we know that once we are in OKC we will be busy having too much fun with Donna's sister and brother-in-law. It's always a good time when we get together. We're also glad to spend a few days off the road before we head to Texas to see more family and friends. We'll keep you posted about our fun times.
