Third Day on the road: Smooth Sailing

 We had another beautiful day with no wind and smooth roads most of the way through Texas.  New Mexico roads are a little rougher.  

We got up around 8 o'clock and had breakfast and left the Walmart around 9:15 for a good start.  Our goal was Santa Rosa, New Mexico.  We got diesel soon after leaving and stayed on I-40 the entire day.  Yuma led the way.

Left Oklahoma behind and entered Texas heading for Amarillo.

Amarillo was really spread out and there was a lot of construction but not much of a slowdown.  Must be 20 miles across the city.

We took a lunch break at a rest stop.  First time doing this and it was refreshing so will continue taking these breaks for the remainder of the journey.

Yuma met a friend heading to Apache Junction for the winter.  Cute covers for the lunch tables.

Finally reached New Mexico and moved into Mountain Time.

Finally saw our first train.

We didn't quite make it to Santa Rosa.  We came across a rest area about 20 miles east of town and decided to call it a night.  With the time change it was 3 o'clock.   Thankful for another uneventful day and hoping tomorrow is another quiet day as we head south finally.
