8 March 2021 Amarillo, TX to Albuquerque, NM

 We departed Texas today on our way to Albuquerque. Once again, the wind was blowing hard from the west/southwest. Fortunately the Wanderer is heavy enough that it does not blow around very much but the head wind really cut into our fuel mileage (6.2 MPG). End result was we pulled into the American RV Resort ($58.00 per night no discount) with only 5 gallons left in the tank. The drive west is also a climb. We have gained 5600 feet in altitude since the time we left Spring Texas. Everything was brown and there was barely a tree in sight most of the way. But you could see a long ways! David has work for the next four days, so our fun time will have to wait until Friday afternoon.
