postheadericon Gay May-26-17

I woke up at 3:30 am and couldn’t go back to sleep and decided to get and Cheri was also awake. So we were on the road at 4:45 am with a 728 mile trip for the day. We hadn’t even got a quarter mile down the road when a deer came across in front of us and was a close call. I guess you could say we were now wide awake. Traffic was heavy going into St Louis but moved well. After getting through St Louis we stopped at a McDonald’s for some coffee and breakfast. Within a half hour we were back on the road. Traffic move well until we were 7 miles from our turn onto I-24 where there was stop and go traffic because they had one of the lanes close for repair. When we got into Kentucky we made a stop for gas. Our next event was about five miles from I-65 and I-24 coming together going into Nashville. Once again in stop and go traffic and that lasted all the way through Nashville. Then we were in a ten mile back up of stop and go traffic getting into Chattanooga and until we got on I-75. From there the traffic was heavy but moved well. We arrived at Darren and Brooke’s at 5:15 pm, not bad for all the traffic backups and losing an hour. When we were going into St Louis I saw the arch and woke Cheri up and told her that if she looked she would be able to see it. She wanted to take a picture with her phone but with all the building that got in the way and only a short time she manage to take one out my side window in front of me. I was surprised how will she did. Check it out.
