Sun, 4/5/09

KOA, Hayti, MO, to St. Louis, MO: Left this morning at 9:30. With severe weather just north of us we thought about holding off for a day, but it’s supposed to SNOW tomorrow in St. Louis, so we decided to go ahead. I started driving. The wind was very strong, but coming from the south so it just kind of pushed us along. Stopped in Sikeston for breakfast and refueling and then I continued driving. The sky started looking really ugly around St. Genevieve and it started raining some. Fortunately, it was Mike’s turn to drive. We managed to get back home without encountering any severe weather. Arrived at the storage area by 2:00, but there was another RV in our storage spot. So we parked it where we could find a safe spot and left a couple of messages for them. Got home and put everything away and relaxed. Good to be home in one piece. We go out again on May 28.

Welcome back to St Louis and thanks for sharing yet another season of your travels-please know that by me it is truly appreciated. I've come to rely on your photos and words and it's comforting to know that right-on-schedule they most miraculously appear.
There's a phrase I'm sure you are familiar with, approximately "youth is wasted on the young", I've added my own spin, firmly believing that "retirement is wasted on the retired". But to all things there are exceptions and most fortunately that exception is you and Mike! I suspect you know how fortunate you are, thanks for sharing!
