Fort Stockton, TX

Wednesday - We left Deming around 9:30 after a cold-ish overnight low of around freezing. The propane furnace works fine but the thermostat doesn’t actually show temperature. It just has a slider for warmer or cooler. We left with a full tank of propane and I’ll get it refilled when we get back to Hondo. Bridget doesn’t seem to mind driving this RV. As long as it isn’t in the city. El Paso was, as usual, a pain to drive through. Lots of construction, traffic, and narrow lanes (due to all of the construction).

I’m not sure if the tank sensors actually work so I emptied the tanks in Deming since we were at an RV park. We’ve identified a few more things that are needed for more functionality and they have been ordered.

We stopped at the Fort Stockton rest area around 4pm. We lost an hour of travel time due to the time zone change. It’s a nice rest area and Texas allows overnight parking. Once we pass Fort Stockton, there aren’t many places to stop especially not this nice. We really want to see how things go dry camping in this RV. Only 311 miles to go.
