Last night the temperature was supposed to go down below freezing but the weatherperson lied because it only got to 37 F. The wind continued all night but dropped down below 15 mph this morning. Having this wonderful fifth wheel trailer negates all but the most terrible weather, like tornadoes, strong thunderstorms and hurricanes. We are quite cozy here.
All of the attractions of Tucumcari await us but, since there seem to be none, we have a short list of places to go. That may be fortunate because the truck is currently crippled and we are reluctant to drive it. We hope the truck issue is ironed out Tuesday because we would like to get on with our travels.
Our big activity for today was a short stroll over to the local Tractor Supply Company. Peggy performed a short perusal of the clothes but we ended up with a bag of bird seed and a length of nylon rope as our take-home treasures. By chance, satellite TV was great for me today; a Grand Prix race in the morning, a NASCAR race midday and Top Gear on BBCA in the evening. With all the alternative attractions in this locale, good TV programming is wonderful.
