We got a picture of this van that was parked right next to us before we left! They did not look like hippies- they looked too young, about 40ish and too clean cut for hippies!
Then we disconnected the utilities and drove over to Camping World. They did not want us to make an appointment, just show up at 8:00 AM. So we did and still had to wait for them to write up the service order. Anyway they took the RV back about 9:00 AM - by 11:00 AM we had not heard a thing. So I went in and talked to the guy - they had done something to the board and the refrigerator was cooling - but they did not know how long it would take to get it to operating temperature to see if it needed a cooling unit. I told him, if it needed a new cooling unit - we would probably just replace the whole refrigerator - and if it did - we would do that in Oklahoma. So he said he would finish the paperwork and get us out. Great! It cost us $99.50 and we left about noon.
Therefore a late start on driving.
We headed east on I-40 and by the time we got to Tucumcari, NM - we were tired from the early morning and the waiting around so we stopped and got a spot for the night. We stayed in a Passport America park for $19.25 and it was an East Indian lady who checked us in. I guess they have the convenience stores, motels, and now RV Parks! She was nice and showed us to the spot and told us a great place to eat.
The refrigerator seems to be working! Yea! It cooled down from 70 degrees to less than 60 degrees - so we will watch it. By later in the evening it was at 50 degrees and so I put our drinks in it to cool down.
We ate at Del's Restaurant, which has been in business since 1934. The food was very good. Then we returned to the RV, walked the dogs a couple of times and watched TV.
This was across the street from the restaurant where we ate.
