We finally began our journey north today. We made it to Lubbock this afternoon with no unexpected surprises this time. It was a rather uneventful trip, which was great. We had planned on stopping over in Snyder, Texas for a visit with family. Unfortunately, all RV Park in the area were booked for some kind of pipe fitters activity, so we pulled over and made an 'executive' decision on what to do next.
One of the wonderful things about this lifestyle is that changes like this aren't a big deal any longer. I told Mark yesterday that we were fortunate that we weren't on a schedule vacation, like the old days when I was with Ma Bell...we lost a day, no major problem--just make a new plan.
We decided to continue on to Lubbock this afternoon and drive an hour or so back to Snyder tomorrow for a visit with my aunt. We're not sure if we'll be here more than a couple of days--that will depend on how my aunt is doing. She's having a very difficult time with her memory these days, so we'll just play it by ear and see how it goes. From here, we head to Cortez, Colorado to visit Mesa Verde National Park and the Durango, Colorado areas.
We also made some adjustments to our upcoming travel plans as well. We've added a few more stops along the way in our trip to St. Mary's, Montana. We're tentatively going to see Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon National Park and a short stop in Las Vegas to check out the new attractions since we were last in Vegas several years ago.
Well, that's about it for now. As always, our plans are in 'jello'--(one of my favorite parts of this entire journey for sure). Hope everyone had a wonderful day, we sure did. Until later...~
