Oct 5, 2003

After updating my log for the new day at the Pilot, I continued on down the road toward Flagstaff AZ. 

As I drove east along I-40, I enjoyed a wonderful view of the moon rising, at first red on the horizon, then slowly rising and turning to the more recognized white.  I just can't beat the view out of my "office window", the windshield! :-)

I stopped at the Little America in Flagstaff at 0515. It's not as good of a truck stop as the original in Wyoming, but is a good enough place as any to stop.  Lori took over driving here and I went to sleep.  I woke up in eastern New Mexico, and took over driving again in Adrian TX at 1615.

I drove to Amarillo where we stopped at 1730 for fuel, food, and a shower. At 1945, it was back on I-40 eastbound.

I-40 between Amarillo & Oklahoma City (OKC) is very bumpy in spots. This is where we discovered our new truck needed new shocks.  I stopped in OKC at 2330 for a break, some coffee, and of course, to update my logbook.
