On the road again

Friday we left for Michigan. Friday night we stayed in a rest area in Fort Morgan, CO. Saturday we drove to the Grand Island KOA in Doniphan, NE.

Parked at Grand Island KOA

Corn for miles

Wow, look at the corn! It's about 7' but although this crop looks good, that is not the case in a lot of places where the drought is really impacting them.

We arrived at the KOA in Rock Island, IL Sunday afternoon and will be here until Wednesday (pic's to come). This is a really nice family spot with a cool pool and splash zone as well as a small lake with paddle boats and fishing.

Tuesday is tire day!  With some answered prayers we made it here with out incident. I originally thought we could wait until we got back to North Carolina but after spotting cracks in the side walls (and not small ones) on all tires I decided it was time to get all new ones.  I had Michelin's on the truck and got 74,758 miles on them since April '09.  Not bad!!

We are here -
Total miles traveled so far: 4,369
