Day 26 Wednesday September 1, 2010 We rode from Joplin, Missouri through Oklahoma to Amarillo, Texas. We rode 485 miles. We left our hotel, The Hampton Inn in Joplin, Texas, at 8:00 AM. We stopped for gas in Vinta, Oklahoma at 9:00 AM. There was not much to say today. The weather was a little problem. We were riding into a storm that you can see if you look at the pictures of the clouds after the picture of the dog in the big rig (these pictures do not give this storm justice it was big and dark). It was like riding into a black hole. We went from hot, to pouring rain and extremely foggy hot, to thunder and lighting hot to supper strong winds hot hot hot. We rode most of the day in tee shirts and didn't mind getting soaked by the rain. The wind was a little scary, we were pushed all over the road. I had a bad day I had to deal with personal problems. So my mind was on those things. Sorry blog readers, hopefully tomorrow will be better.
