We made it to just north of Kansas City last night. The wind was brutal and we lost a few loose items in the truck bed but nothing important. When we left St Joseph this morning it was 60 and still a bit windy.
Here's the quick tour of St Louis.
First the arch as we entered town from Illinois.
Within one minute we are past the Mississippi, Bush Stadium and continuing west. Today we went through a bit of Iowa and up to North Platte.
Into Iowa still just ahead of the front. Then into Nebraska.
Being passed by what has to be one of the worlds largest propeller blade.
Yet another scheme to separate the traveler from his money.
By the time we entered Nebraska it was in the 30's and the wind had switched from southwest to northeast. Tonight's forecasted low here in North Platte is 19. Tomorrow's low in Rawlins is supposed to be 9.
When we left Tallahasee seven days ago I had to change my sweat soaked T shirt after finishing up packing the fifth wheel for the road at 9 AM.
WE ARE NOT IN FLORIDA ANYMORE!
