My mum used to live in West Virginia (I live in the UK) and whenever I went to visit I was always blown away by the beauty of the forests and mountains there. Everything is always so much bigger and better than in England! You suggest lots of non-fiction travel books, but I wondered if there was any good travel fiction that you could suggest? I'm planning a road trip to the States soon and just fancy something a little-bit more light hearted. Thanks, Anna Hey,

I was probably around eight years old. Good old Trees of Mystery, one of the last great tourist traps on 101 north.

Thanks Rene. I think we'll try out the visitor's center as it will truely just be an overnighter. I've followed your blog and you guys seem to have the same tastes we do when it comes to c(k)amping spots. We've enjoyed a few of the same ones, like the gravel bar at Lobster Creek and 3 Rivers in NM. Wow you are fast! Thanks Rene.

Wish we would've because it would have saved us from a LOT of driving instead of going all the way to Las Vegas looking for a free spot. We never found the lake. I recommend staying at the Visitor's Center parking lot in Tucumcari, adjacent to the convention center. It's a huge parking lot and they seemed hospitable to overnighters. Good luck!

Did you check it out? Would it work for an overnight spot? Thanks. Bill I googled Tucumcari Lake looking for an overnight spot heading west and saw your inquiry on the SKPs blog.
