Amarillo by morning

[vik_thor]

Was going to eat @ Denny's for Brekkies, then looked at the free breakfast here. Eating here. :)

car is getting about 34mpg highway! :) was able to make it from Tempe all the way to outskirts of ABQ on 1 tank! and by how much I put in, still had about 1gal left!

on milemarker 108 in New Mexico, west of ABQ, saw a semi tractor (bobtailed) giving out LOTS of white smoke from stack. looking in rearview, when it looked like he was exiting, ALL I could see on that side of highway was a cloud of smoke!

Not gonna cut the refill that close again. Mapped out on http://www.phoenixgasprices.com/index.aspx? some fuel stops on the way to Mom's. Need to pick up a road atlas @ first stop.

Visiting Bethany and Grandma on Wednesday. Up to Pittfield Thursday night to visit with David Thursday/Friday, then homeward bound. Thinking of stopping by Kansas City, to visit Miki's grave. Haven't fully decided that yet.

Ah, the dreaded white smoke... someone blew their turbo charger. Now that's going to suck even if its a company rig, best case scenario, one day of down time, realistic, 2-3 if the part's in stock, much longer if not.

Hmmm, thought you were talking about going through KC on the return trip?
