My Sun in the Fun has ended, We are on our way home and are spending the evening in Roswell NM. Hauling home my purchases from Arizona and looking forward to playing with them. Expect to be back in the Frozen Tundra by the weekend. |

| That wind was great when it was out of the SW and it was a tail wind, Buttttt I turned East and the wind turned south and it got interesting, slowed me down because that trailer wanted to get squirrly from the wind. Made it to Oklahoma City tonight, and will be meeting up with some of those western Missouri collectors tomorrow evening in Dearborn. |
