The drive from Amarillo to Fort Worth on US287 is long and boring. The highway is lined on each side by hundreds of miles of pasture and cotton fields. You can see forever, but there is nothing to see! You have to be careful with the little towns US287 goes through because the highway is a major source of income for them (traffic tickets). Coming into Fort Worth, we had to go through downtown on the rebuilt I-35E corridor during rush hour. Having to change lanes in rush hour traffic with 60 feet of rig is no fun. Fortunately, there are still some nice folks out there who will let you over. We pulled into Mansfield just as the sunset at 5:40 after 8 hours on the road. We are staying at the Texan RV Ranch ($305 for 1 week). This is our first time here. We were a bit surprised by the amount of traffic on the roads to the RV Park as it is outside the city in a more country setting. Water pressure is not great (only 40lbs).
