Day 3 Thackerville OK to South Haven KS

We took our time this morning getting on the road. A short day of 250 miles so we pulled out of the casino park around 9AM. We pulled in to Oasis RV Park around 1:30. For our RV friends - its a good over nighter. Right off I35 exit 4, turn left and you'll see the park. Nothing fancy but great WiFi (free). We have no cell service tho (Verizon). Lots are gravel but nice and long. $20 for 50amp using Pass Port America card.

Temperature was a unbelievable 47 degrees. At least the sun was out but even I thought about warmth if we turned south instead of north. So long pants and sweat shirts were pulled out of the back of the closet.

The tire monitoring system (Pressure Pro) was not liking these cold temp's any better than we were. Tires are set for temp's in the 90's not 40's. But it didn't take long and the beeps quit. It did warm up but we had wind out of the north and that sucked the old fuel tank. Tomorrow we will stop at the first Service Center when we get on the Toll Road.

We've seen diesel from $4.00 to $3.85 and friends have said this Service Center is usually the cheapest around. Hope so, Larry checked it tonight and looks like we'll be putting in over 100 gallon again.

That's it for today. Till next time....................................

Diesel in our part of western Michigan runs from #4.08 to $4.23. Buy it cheap while you can. Lon & Pat

Sounds like you guys are moving right along. Thanks for the "ad". :-) You probably need to reset your baseline pressures on the tires since you're back in the "cool country". We'll be headed north in a couple of weeks. Have a safe trip. We'll be following along.
