Watch alarm goes off at exactly 6 am this morning. I will need to figure out how to shut that alarm off. Just haven’t thought about it yet. Bet I will by the 8th day the alarm wakes me up at 6!
Started off the day with temperatures in the upper 30’s, by 10 am it was in the upper 40’s. We stopped for lunch at a Rest Stop right at noon, and we were in the 50’s. Stopped for gas and some groceries just before 3 pm and it was close to 70. Went a few more miles down the road and pulled into an RV park for the night. Enjoyed the last hour of daylight sitting in lawn chairs having a couple of beers. It’s finally warm enough for me to take off my sweatshirt and enjoy the weather in a t-shirt. Forgot to take a picture to flaunt, but most know what Paul, Shirley, and myself look like in a lawn chair drinking a beer anyway.
We are spending the night at Coachlight RV Park in Carthage MO. Just a few more miles and we will enter Oklahoma on Interstate 44. Watched the weather, and the beautiful day is going to turn into a high of 38 degrees tomorrow. Seems the cold is chasing us down here.
Shirley talked about the Mexican town we plan to cross over to when we are further along. Google’d that baby, and looks like things are pretty exciting. Several articles about people disappearing and multiple murders taking place in a drug turf battle. Border Patrol recommending people cross at their own risk. But, that was last year. But there is nothing going on so far this year that we can dig up :-) The decision to cross for cheap booze will have to be made as we get closer.
okay, you are really mean to all of us here with ice and snow everywhere. I think I forgot what a t-shirt is let alone a lawn chair...not sure if we even have a lawn anymore! Not sure if the cheap booze is worth getting yourself killed...but if it's really a deal...bring us some back!!

Decision hasn't been made yet to cross the border. Standby, I will let everyone know if it's a go.
