Heading toward Warm (Friends and Temps)

Our day started off just a little cool, below freezing, but still much warmer than yesterday. There were only 4 RVs in the casino's campground, and we were the last one out the gate at 9:00 AM.  Everyone is in a hurry to get warm.

On the spur of the moment, Paige Googled the name of an old friend, Kathy, whom we haven't seen in a number of years.  Her business link came up right away, and we called to see if she had time to meet for lunch (at only an hour's notice).  She made the time for us, so we found a Flying J Truck Stop and parked the motorhome.  We took the toad into Kansas City and caught up on old times.  It was so great to see her!! Here are the 2 former roomates:

While in the Kansas City area, we saw water fountains with liquid water, some green grass, and at least 3 motorcycles so we know we are moving in the right direction.  At the time, our Droid showed 19 degrees back home, we saw 46 on our dashboard, and actually hit 50 before we stopped for the night.  With an earlier start, we were still able to stop and set up for the night before sunset.

  1. Keep the updates coming!! I love the map locations too. It was sunny and mild here today too - just over 40 degrees and sunny. Gotta love that kind of January day.

  2. Glad you are on your way! We miss you and it isn't too late to get the computer and cell phone to work on the road. Plus, I don't think you really made your way through all the paperclips. Looking forward to hearing more from you and I will keep the office posted.
    Wishing you good travels!
