Sundermeier RV Park, St. Charles, MO:  Cold today.  And the slush in our site is now ice.  We got a dusting of snow is all. But it’s really cold. I think the high today was 21. Going down to single digits tonight. But it’s warming up next week, so the future looks brighter—starting on Saturday. In the meantime we’re hunkering down and trying to stay warm.

We call this foamy stuff Keys snow. It builds up on the lake and on the ocean shore when it's windy and then blows around like little tumbleweeds. It's a lot different than the snow we're encountering now.

KOA, W. Memphis, to Sundermeier RV Park, St. Charles, MO:  Well we made it here.  Encountered a lot of fog.  In Sikeston, MO, we stopped for fuel and food, and we couldn’t believe the brutally cold wind as we got out of the truck.  After filling up both the truck and our stomachs, we reluctantly left the warmth of Denny’s and Mike took over driving. Unfortunately, the fog seemed to get worse.  It wasn’t until 90 miles south of St. Louis that it finally cleared.  And warmed up a bit as well.  Left this morning at 8:30 and pulled into Sundermeier RV Park and were set up by 3:30.  We’re on a cement pad, but it’s covered in an icy slush.  Wish they’d cleaned it off.  By tomorrow it’ll be ice since the temps are going to plummet. After setting up we headed out for dinner and drinks. It took us 10 days to get home, what with the weather delay and the kitchen slide malfunction delay.  But we’re here safe and sound and now we’ll go see the damage to our house and go on from there.
