Headed to St Louis

I just left Steve's house and was about to get on the highway I stopped at the gas station to get a fill up and this sign was off to the side and I thought I would take picture of it instead of the gas station.

After I left there I got on the highway and headed to St Louis.

Planning the Trip Home

Working on my trip home going to stop in St Louis for the night I am thinking that will be about half way and will be an easy two day drive to get home without any issues.

Going to stay an extra day here so I can go with Steve to his class on Monday, I will be able to get my support calls I get on Monday out of the way with a computer in front of me, instead of trying to find a place to pull over to handle them.

Then on Tuesday morning I will head on down the road and head south first stop St Louis for the night



October Thanksgiving Dinner Party

Dinner was really great today we had two ducks and some great cheese and wine, I got to meet Vicki my cousin and Laura my second cousin and her husband Paul. Also met some friends of theirs that came by the house to say hi.

I was a really nice day I enjoyed it.
