Rev Lyin Kerrdawg SASS # 57116 Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Cowboys and Cowgirls, I need a little help for our son and family. The boy and daughter in law, 2 grandkids have new orders after 4 tours of duty & 12 yrs in California. They are Navy Seabee's and the Navy is moving them to Gulfport Ms. They was wondering about making a stop one night in Amarillo Tx. They are staying in Phoenix tonight, Albuquerque Friday night. Which side of Amarillo or the safest area. They have 2 vehicles. Then drive on to Home to Owasso, Oklahoma for 5 days with his momma and me . before heading on South to Gulfport Ms. Rev & Katie Holliday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Albuquerque is known for breakins of moving vehicles and trailers being stolen. I'd drive to one of the small towns east of ABQ for the night. Moriarty has more motel options than does Edgewood. The Sunset Inn in Moriarty allows one to park right in front of your room (its a 60s vintage property). New Mexico is not California. You can (and should) drive armed. body stolen, U-Haul stolen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Rick Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 I just stayed at the Staybridge Suites in Amarillo on my way back home (MS Gulf Coast) from Cheyenne. It was a very good hotel. Breakfast was very good for a buffet-style - make your own waffles with fruit toppings. I would stay there again. Does your son do CAS? If I can be of assistance on the coast shoot me a PM.

Choctaw Jack Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 If you don't paying a little more for lodging, most of the local casinos have pretty good overnight security.We often spend the night in a casino parking lot when traveling in the motorhome.

Billy Boots, # 20282 LTG-Regulator Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 There is a very nice 50's style (but newly done inside) motel in Santa Rosa called La Mesa, on Route 66 parallel to I-40 . I highly recommend it, stayed there before driving on in to Founders Ranch for EOT. Staying in Santa Rosa, one might eliminate stay in ALBQ and get further east from Amarillo.
