Mission Nearly Impossible - Drive from Kansas City to Amarillo in One Day

Today - Day 2 - was a day of total concentration on driving - and shifting the Subaru. Total driving distance was 594 miles. We made it in 11 hours. The important thing is that we made it, and we didn't have to click our heels. Carol did most of the driving today, while Pat napped.

And we took a photo with Dorothy and her little dog Toto at a travel plaza on the Kansas Turnpike. Thanks to Sherry Munyon for the Lucy and Ethel photo!



We didn't even stop to eat. We had breakfast at our hotel in the morning, and a yoghurt and fruit parfait at the Turnpike travel plaza, but mostly ate snacks that Carol had brought and left-overs from yesterday. We had to stop at a gas station in Enid, Kansas to add oil to the car when the oil light came on.
