We have ended the day at a Love's in Strafford, MO a little farther then we planned and we are going to need earplugs to sleep. It was a beautiful day filled with blue skies and sunshine, In fact the sun was so warm it actually got hot sitting in our seats this afternoon.
Lots of traffic today everyone is on the move as it gets closer and closer to Christmas.
 |
About an hour after we left Wenona this morning we could see the sun
trying to make an appearance. |
 |
| Off to our left it was peeking ever so slightly through the clouds. |
 |
| Then all we could see ahead was blue sky. |
 |
| A few hours later we could see the arch in the distance. |
 |
| Then we were crossing the Mississippi River into Missouri. |
 |
Some pictures of the road ahead and a water tower. This one is for you George.
Even if you are not a Bourbon drinker I thought you would get a kick out of it. |
 |
| More pictures of the road ahead and another water tower. |
 |
| One last picture of the road ahead not long after this we stopped for the night. |
 |
When I saw this I laughed out loud.
Hope it brings a smile to your face. |
Today was a long day but a good one. We hope you can say the same.
We are glad you stopped by and if you decide to leave a comment we would enjoy hearing from you.
Glad you are making good time but don't wear yourselves out.
ReplyDeleteHad a Blowout replaced in Bourbon last spring.
Be Safe and Enjoy!
It's about time.
We will be slowing down for the rest of the journey. Looking ahead it looks like we are pass the snow.
DeleteHead for the heat. Winter is on your tail. Glad you are making good time. Welcome to the south.
ReplyDeleteFunny but it really was on Sunday. Tom drove in snow for about 5 minutes.
DeleteYou are making great time moving right along. A water tower full of Bourbon? Wow !!
ReplyDeleteKeep travelling safe.
Thanks guys. Yes, that would be something.
DeleteA long day but a great one..you're moving on! Makes you wonder who comes up with the town names..sitting around drinking bourbon and deciding what a great name for their town?! ...Love the red, white and blue water tower! The chickens are too cute!
ReplyDeleteIt does make you wonder.
DeleteI laughed out loud when I saw those chickens. I remember those days when the kids were small running here, there, and everywhere trying to get things done. Funny but there are moments I miss those days...LOL
I hope you're out of snow range and into warmer weather. It's good to see you on the road again.
ReplyDeleteThank you we are glad to be moving. Looking ahead there should be no snow in our future.
DeleteHead south! :) You are making good time and we're glad the roads and skies are clear for you.
ReplyDeleteIt is all that toe crossing...Thanks...LOL
DeleteYou are making excellent time and soon will be in the south away from the threat of winter. The cold will soon be a memory. Safe travels!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, we are looking forward to the cold being just a memory.
DeleteSo nice to see you guys are on the road and headed the right direction!! Good to see you didn't have to drive through any snow.
