David successfully got RBII’s oil changed and filled his gas tank with fuel at $2.979 at a Circle K in Oklahoma City. That’s the lowest price we have paid for fuel!! Our highest was $4.35/gal in Hawaii. After a complimentary blueberry muffin and coffee courtesy of the camp, we headed across the remainder of Oklahoma to our stopping point tonight at Little Rock Air Force Base FAMCAMP. It only costs us $12/night to camp here as a transient. The concrete pads are very level--guess the Air Force knows how to make level surfaces!! This is the C-130 center of excellence for training its crews.
Our route today was so tree-lined we can’t tell you much about crops. The terrain begins to look much more familiar. It was also overcast for the first time with occasional sprinkles except for a minute of hard rain while we were at a rest stop having lunch in Jay. We’d had lots of lightning and thunder in OK City last night but very little rain. It looks like we are chasing a cold front. Looking at the weather forecast Tennessee is in for some of the coldest weather of the season starting Thursday.
Today we spend our second day in the same time zone--CDT. It was very confusing in Arizona and New Mexico because they are both mountain time, but Arizona doesn’t use daylight saving time, so it was really Pacific daylight saving time!! The ipad seemed able to adjust to where we were but the MacBook is still confused.
No photos today due to limited visibility.
