Magnus Goes to the Red Rock Country, Day 18

 Friday, September 26
And return Saturday

We spent the night at another RV Park, this one the Back Forty RV Park in Quanah, Texas.  Very not memorable.  I have no notes and I honestly can't remember a thing about it, good or bad. From my pictures it's just a flat spot with gravel and RV hookups. Blah.

Returned on Saturday, taking the google maps recommended route of I-35 South in Denton to Lewisville, where we pick up the 121/Sam Rayburn Tollway to home.  It's like the two sides of a right triangle instead of the hypotenuse.  But it's faster. Really faster. And NO traffic lights.
 

Trip notes:
1. Current drive times indicate that for every three hours google time, add an hour for our time. And if the road is up mountains, add a another hour.

2. Always stay in Tucumcari (or nearby, at the State Park) and eat at Las Chaparitas.  

3. Go back to Canyonlands someday and take the Jeep down the dirt roads.

4. Avoid private RV parks like the plague.  A few that we've stayed at have been very nice, but in general they suck.  KOAs maybe be the exception to this--we've stayed at some pretty nice KOAs--but even those were crowded and uncomfortable.  Remember--anytime you're staying at a private RV park that has permanent or seasonal dwellers, you're basically staying at someone's home.  You have to be on your best behavior at all times; very careful not to upset the locals. And who wants that?
