Yukon, OK

 We left Amarillo mid morning and fought 40+ mph headwinds to get to Mustang Run RV Park in Yukon, Oklahoma the day after eight tornados touched down and killed three people! The wind on I 40 was definitely a force to be reckoned with as we saw two big rigs that had flipped over. Our truck and trailer were all over the highway, and we were very happy to arrive at our park!

We kinda enjoyed the first part of the trip out of Amarillo through mountain passes and on out to the plains. Rolling hills and thousands of acres of grass make the plains of north Texas and western Oklahoma a beautiful area.

We found a wide spot along the highway that Texas calls a rest area, but without a bathroom. None the less, we were happy to take a break!

The plains, where the wind always blows, is a perfect place for turbines! There are thousands of them out here!

Almost there!

Mustang Run is an extremely nice park, with wide, long sites. Sasha likes all the grass! Unfortunately, it’s near Interstate 40, and road noise is a bit annoying.

We’ve been here two nights as I write this, and will move to another park tomorrow, just twenty miles farther east, where we’ll stay most of a week. Today we did laundry and filled the truck with fuel. Diesel here in Oklahoma City is going for $3.44 a gallon, so we filled every container we had! 

Some big doins’ in the next few days, so stay tuned!
