Did
a long ride today and we were informed it was going to be hot but was a nice 26
degrees with the odd very hot period. Struck some rain just leaving Flagstaff but nothing to worry
about and OMG no one got lost today.
Ok I did for 10 minutes but we a have back up plan to find each
other. I missed a turn off but
went down next one and backtracked and they were at a gas station. Mental note when at gas station check
tank for fuel.
We
visited the meteor crater by Winslow.
Awesome, well worth the look and I can cross that one off my list. 15
minutes down the road I ran out of gas.
Well bugger me its in the middle of nowhere but away in the distance
could see a building so coaxed the lovely lady down the road stopping to shake
her side to side to get that extra bit of mileage out of her.
The
building was a run down Indian trading post and they didn't have any spare gas
but I spotted a hose lying on the ground grabbed that and siphoned some out of
Dave's tank. I can still taste it
and that was 3 hours ago.
Staying
at another Super 8 tonight as laundry night and I have run out of jocks and I
am not going to be like Mark and turn them inside out. I am pleased there is only the 3 of us
on the trip (thinking of you Nathan) as anymore would have been hard
going. We have found that most
motels will throw in a fold away bed for an extra $10.00 so we are averaging
about $20.00 to $25.00 each for the night.
Quite
happy, been here 5 days and things going along ok. Right time for the pool as all sweaty and smelly, shower
first as don't want to leave a ring around the pool. We are getting some good
accommodation so far as haven't booked anywhere, just rock up ask price for 3
in a room have you got WiFi, have you got a pool, have you got a fridge in the room - all the important
questions!
