2 RV's to Wilmington NC (delivered)

2 RV's to North Canton OH (Sunday)

... spending the night at North Liberty IA


Way to much food yesterday. Even with only eating part of my meal last night. I woke up around 3 AM and slept even worse after that.


Today was going to be a yogurt day, but this place also had fried apples for breakfast so I did have a few of those to go with my yogurt.


Everything/everyone was going slower this AM so instead of leaving earlier, we ended up leaving late which doesn't help at the other end of the day.


When I go in to check out of the hotel, their computer is still down so no receipt this AM. And that is why I had to 'hot spot' my phone to use my computer at this hotel.


BB and I talk a lot about trips, we finally settle on doing a short WI trip on Sunday/Monday and we will then stay local after that. At 8 AM central BB calls, as I am driving. The first time she gets voicemail so she calls back. The one trip we wanted is gone. 50 trips on the loadboard and the only one we want is taken right at 8 AM before we can get through. And that is the only trip that comes off the loadboard in the 1st hour. Then a 2nd trip is gone, in all, 9 trips are taken today.


Finally about 10 AM we agree to take two North Canton RV's and call dispatch. We should be able to pick them up on Sunday and drop them on Tuesday. From the drop we still have another week before we need to be home again.


1st stop was in Xenia at a Walmart for fuel, restroom and the above phone call. Earlier in the day BB had said she wouldn't need to stop until IN ... but those are the kind of answers she gives when she is not really paying attention. :) That would have been 4 hours between restroom stops.


2nd stop is in Greenfield for food at Stake n Shake, this one is open.

... Opps, this time I can't see out of my left eye ... but that is because I get sauce from my sandwich all over my glasses. This happened before I started driving so I was kind of, able to get them wiped off before we left the parking lot.


From here, the GPS had us on the side roads for about six miles to avoid something that was happening on on the freeway.


Today we take the shortcut through Indy. It runs right past a huge indoor mall that now is either empty or almost empty. Other than that most of the nearby businesses are in good repair and occupied. Lots of the buildings have new owners but are open for business. Most of the name brand businesses that used to be here are gone.


3rd stop was the rest area in Oakwood


4th stop was the rest area in Gilson


5th stop was for fuel in Davenport. Plan was to fuel at Flying J because we get a bigger discount but at this station the pumps run very very slow. We decided that time was more important. We fuel at the Speedway instead. First we still have $10 gift card left, then I get a $.03 discount with my rewards card so almost as good as Flying J.


When we decided to fuel in Davenport we did not have enough fuel range to get to the state line, but as the trip went on we gained mileage and still had a range of 25 miles when we got to Davenport. Fuel was up to $.50 less here so it was worth the push.


We are supposed to have this car back by 11 AM or pay for an extra day. It is going to be a push, but we also do not like driving too far after dark so we will get up early instead.


6th and final stop of the night is the Comfort Inn in North Liberty. But first we stop at Arby's and go through the drive thru.


Alarm is set for 5 AM central, we are still on east coast time I guess ...
