We all made it to Albuquerque alive and well. This is the longest drive of the trip: 14 hours. We’ll spend the day here at a family reunion and then take off tomorrow morning.

We cleared out of base housing at 10 AM and were on the road by 1 PM. It was a loooonnnnnggg uneventful drive. The bad part was that the A/C in the cab doesn”t work. The U-Haul tops out at about 70 MPH and there were a couple of hills where we maxed out at 25 MPH! Yes, I did pull over and let people pass.

If things continue to go this smoothly we should arrive in IL right on schedule.
