postheadericon Gay Oct-17-13

We were both up at 5:00 am so we could visit with Nikki before she left for work at 6:00 am. Coz was off for the next 5 or 7 days. We finally got everything together and on the road at 7:50 am. We drove about 40 miles and run into rain for the next 150 miles. Then when we made the turn south at Champaign IL we had a very strong wind out of the west that pushed the U-Haul around. Finally late this afternoon thing settled down and the rest of the 616 miles was a nice drive. We did see a 9 mile back up of traffic going north do to road construction in southern IL; sure glad we were going the other way. We stopped in Cadiz KY at the Super 8 and were in our room by 7:30 pm. We stopped for gas twice and twice at rest areas, the rest of the time was spent in the driver seat, we also eat while driving. We have about 320 miles to go tomorrow to get to Darren’s in Atlanta. Want to get in there before the evening rush hour traffic.
