Still no spell checking.

This morning we said good-bye to Bob and Jean and continued westward.

Our route took us a little further south into Arkansas than west to Tulsa, Oklahoma and south to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. This route took us on several toll roads. The owners of the ETR in Toronto could learn a thing or two from the Oklahoma road department. If you had a “pass” you just drove down the road, if you didn't have a pass you pulled into the right lane and stopped at a toll booth to pay your toll --- no bill in the mail with a huge administration fee.

When we reached Oklahoma City we got on Interstate 40 to continue driving west. As Ed hasn't found any geocaches in Oklahoma we had a mission of finding two geocaches. When we stopped for lunch we found the first cache. We continued west and got onto Route 66 to look for a second cache. It took stops at a couple of caches before he successfully found a second cache.

A stretch of Route 66 we drove on.

As we drove west through Oklahoma and Texas these were a common site

We stopped for the night in a small town in New Mexico called Tucumcari on Route 66. Unfortunately, a number of the businesses have closed but there's still enough of them open for you to get a few of what Route 66 was like in the 50s.
