Where I stayed
We are on our way to Santa Rosa, NM for our next stop. Santa Rosa is located on historic Route 66. This will be the first time I have officially traveled along this route and I'm kind of excited about it.
I am hoping that the excitement of our Route 66 visit will overshadow the excitement of getting pulled over by the Texas State Police just over the border from Oklahoma in the Texas panhandle. I was one of many victims we saw today along I40 through the Texas panhandle.
Just a word of warning to anyone traveling along this route, stick close to the speed limit. 10 miles over will easily earn you a ticket. The state trooper was so overzealous, he even tried to wave over a light blue pick-up while in the process of soliciting my ticket. The truck did not stop. On the bright side, I did a favor for the van in front of me that I had been following.
