"Live" from the Western Swing

Larry Hill · 07-02-2010, 07:04 AM

Well we got 300 miles down the road last night before we stopped around 11:30 in Columbia, MO. So another 500 miles today and we will be in Marion. Should be there between 4 & 5. We had a turn signal light go out, so Larry has been Wal-martin' this morning. All they had were LED, so our lights are pretty now!

I guess you have heard about the saying "the best laid plans of mice and men" (or something to that effect). Well, I had these big plans to stop and make a picture by the "Welcome" sign as we entered every state. Well, the first one was Illinois, about 20 miles from home. There was only a very narrow shoulder and then a railing. Not even enough room to pull over a car, let alone a motorhome and trailer. Then in St. Louis, then "Welcome to Missouri" sign was on the bridge over the Mississippi River. So much for my plans!

Anyway it looks like a beautiful day for traveling today. 80's and sunshine.

More later
