We have just arrived in Ann Arbor. We will be getting our load in Michigan on Monday afternoon and delivering in Ohio Monday evening. We left El Paso last Monday evening, Texarkana Wednesday, Delaware Thursday, New York, Friday. We are looking forward to some necessary catch-up rest. We need to be in Ohio for a class on Wednesday so we're taking Tuesday off. Hopefully this is the last class for a while. I think that from then on it's just renewal sessions.
The stretch of country let us view a myriad of changes in the weather. Southern Texas is in the middle of a drought of enormous size while the Mississippi river continues to rise and flood. We encountered perfect weather in the eastern part of the country. However today has presented a total day of clouds and rain. In the past week we have gone from 110 degrees in El Paso to a chilling, damp, windy, wet 50 here in Ann Arbor. We can't change it, so why complain? It is what it is.
My dad and my brother are driving home from my sister's in Arkansas today. I hope they don't have much trouble with the rain. Last Saturday I-40 was under water. Thank goodness it has opened up now. I'll be glad to see Dad again. He's been in Texas for the winter and gone for the last 6 months. Ron and I are hoping to make it home for Father's Day. I'd even settle for being home for just the day.
Well, I've pretty much run down now. Ron is finishing the laundry while I get this posted. We will probably watch a little tv and hit the sack for a decent night's sleep. We hope to find a close church in the morning since the truckstop doesn't have a ministry here. Then do a little shopping and relax. Sounds like a definite plan!!! Until next time . . . . . . . .
