Arrived Tucson, Arizona

Another good day of traveling. Made 530 miles today. Nice breakfast at the Santa Rosa Super 8, and then we were on the road by 6:30am local. Some more new road for me. (Road I've never been on. At least don't remember being on it.) We turned down hwy 54 from Santa Rosa, then on to hwy 70, passing Holloman AFB and White Sands National Park, before jumping on I10 at Las Cruces. Now I thought all of 54 and 70 were highways I had never traveled before. But I do remember a trip I took with my boys a long time ago, in our motorhome, (This was over their spring break, but their mom had to work as McFarland schools, where she worked, was on a different schedule...) And I remember we stopped at White Sands National Park. So, I must have been on at least that section of Hwy 70.... I am pretty sure, the section of interstate between Springfield, Mo., and Joplin was all new to me however.... I've been across our grand country so much, there aren't many interstates that I haven't traversed! We stopped at Walmart, once we arrived in Tucson, to do a little grocery shopping, before continuing up to my boating friend's home, up against Saguaro National Park. Beautiful area, but has to be interesting for him to tow his boat (another 25' C-Dory like ours) up and down the long, narrow, winding street to his house.Baca selengkapnya
