68502 miles on Trailblazer
9:00 a.m - and the temp is 40 degrees with sunny skies and a little windy. Filled up with gas here at $1.59
12:15 p.m. - We got through the mess of Dallas with no problem, thanks to "Nellie". It is 47 degrees and still sunny, blue skies and not as much win.
1:00 p.m. - -We stopped for gas at Hillsboro, Texas where gas here is $1.69 a gallon with still sunny blue skies, 50 degrees and windy. The good thing is the wind is behind us so we are getting much better gas mileage. We are about 1 1/2 hours from Debbie and Jimi's. We have driven 1510 miles so far.
2:35 p.m. - Arrived at Debbie and Jimi's with a 52 degree temp. Had a great night and dinner with them and just kicked back and enjoyed their company. At this stage of the game we just want to get home. Frank is really relaxing and enjoying the company and calmness. We will head out in the morning for Fort Stockton, Texas which is close to the border of New Mexico. That should take us about 7 hours.

You guys will just have to wait until tomorrow. It is a pleasure to drive right now. There are 2 La Quinta's in this area that are right across the freeway from each other. The one is in Arkansas and is more expensive by about $40 than the other one that is in Texas. We are passing through the town of Mt Pleasant on our way to Da
