At Winterset the camp host knocked on the door Wednesday night. He advised us severe weather was to our north and let us know of the two safe buildings. Rain started about 3am but it was light. We were awake early so left by 8:30am during a lull in the rain. What followed was a terrible day driving in the rain. We took some state roads to avoid downtown Kansas City which was tough in good weather. Did we make the correct decision, we will never know. It rained then it poured, then it rained harder. A long miserable day to be on the road. Total trip was 367 miles but took us nearly 8 hours.
We arrived at our campsite safely and began setting up. All was going great till Mary told me a slide would not go out. Oh bloody hell. Not a rare occurrence, but a first for us in 6 years of rv travel. Mark will be saying I told you so because he dislikes slide outs on rvs. We can function fine as it is but I will try and solve problem tomorrow. Too damn tired tonight. Will rest here for three days before heading to Thackerville OK for a night.
stop and smell the roses my friends...
