Put that stack on E-bay and see what you can get.

56. We did 54 last year on the way home, and I can't imagine any highway being much slower than that one was.

It was a great "cut-off" in its day, but I'm with you on that one, it's slow!

Give us a comparison when you get back!

Don't forget to pay your respects to Tucumcari Station!

I visited the worlds largest hand dug well in Greensburg, KS in 1995. I suppose it survived the tornado? Oklahoma Panhandle State U always impressed me in such a small town.
