Windy Day on the Road

Day One we drove 291 miles, home to Shawnee OK. Started out as a wonderful day,weather sunny and nice then about 90 miles from Shawnee the wind started to blow so hard that it was unrolling the living area slide awning as we were rolling down the road. What a scary thing to be going down the freeway at 65 MPH and your awning start flapping in the wind.. Just so happened that we were going to fuel up anyway so we pulled off and got fuel and let me get pulled back together!! Took on about 108 gal and the wind was so bad we decided to try and head down the road to a rest area so Pacer could walk some and I was going to see more about the awning. We did find a rest area just up the road and as it turned out we were pulled in with the awning side to the back of the wind and I was able to check it out. We started back on the road and got to the RV park in Shawnee at about 4:00. We pulled in and there were only three other coaches in the park at that time and low and behold they were ALL Foretravels. Just crazy but pretty cool. We got our selfs hooked up and then walked Pacer. Donna and I went in to register our site and then had dinner. Very hard to believe but we were both in the sack buy 8:00PM. The tempature was in the 70's and we had the air on when we went to bed and in the 30's when we woke up and you bet we had the HEAT on.. Well today were are off to Amarillo TX for the night. Hope this note finds all our Loved ones and freinds doing well.
