Tuesday, May 17, 2011 the road to Gallup, NM


On Tuesday morning, May 17th we set out for Holbrook AZ., making a stop in Kingman to get some food on board. Over lunch, Lindsey and I were looking at the map and decided that our third stop in Lubbock, TX didn’t look so good. Besides, we really wanted to have lunch in Santa Rosa, NM one day and this route just wouldn’t work. SO……..we changed it all up and decided to stay on Highway 40 and go all the way to Gallup NM for the night.

We made a stop in Flagstaff for dinner. Didn’t know where to go so we pulled up some choices on the GPS and picked one close to where we were. What a surprise! It was the Black Bart’s Restaurant and Saloon. All of the wait staff took turns at the microphone and sang hits from all of the favorite Broadway shows and movies – they were pretty good too! They also had a honky tonk piano player that was quite entertaining. After dinner and a nice break from driving, we hit the road again for another 2 ½ hours. The drive has been great and the weather is holding out, gloomy and very windy, but no rain yet. We pulled into the Gallup KOA about 10pm after putting 1,040 miles on the RV in two days.
