Wouldn’t you know something changed. They just kept packing and about noon on Saturday they were done so they left - 12:35 Bargersville Standard Time. As expected Sasha is loving this because she got over eight hours of lap time. Marsha wasn’t felling 100% so Larry drove the entire way.
Two interesting things of note. At almost exactly four hours into the trip Marsha remembered the first (and certainly not the last) thing she forgot. Something about an insulated mug that would fit the cup holder in the RV.
But the real fun began in St. Louis - the GPS system melted down coming into the city and wouldn’t give turn directions until about 15 seconds late and we missed a turn. No problem right? The GPS has a “back on track” feature that tells you how to get back on the road going the right way. Well it took us of the expressway and promptly took us down a dead end street. No problem, right? Wrong! When you are towing a car you can’t back up. Well when that happened Larry let loose some language that curled the chrome right off my choke chain collar. Wow!
They had to unhook the car and the dolly, get everything turned around and hooked back up again. Took an hour and one Marsha meltdown to get it done.
They had dinner at Lamberts the home of the throw’d rolls. Sounds interesting and I was disappointed I didn’t get to go ‘cause I’m a real good catch.
Headed for Texas today. Gotta go, Larry is getting ready to drag Marsha’s sorry butt out of bed and hit the road again. It just before 9AM central standard time.
