Heading Home


Our plan worked. We pulled out of our site at 6:30AM while everyone was just stirring. We connected the car and hit the road. We got out of Albuquerque ahead of the RV rush and before the rush hour traffic started. A great start!
After putting a few miles behind us we stopped for breakfast and a break just after crossing into Texas.
In no time we were were at our first overnight campground as we work our way back to Mannheim. Our first stop was Amarillo Texas. It didn't take long to get set up for the night and have a relaxing moment to unwind.
Next day we're on the road again by 8AM. That allows us to get off the road by 3 PM which allows some time to relax at the end of the day. As we came into Oklahoma we came across this tower; not something you see every day.
Our next stop was Oklahoma City. A lovely campground in the middle of the city although it seems like its out in the country. The building that was bombed was only 4 blocks away but we didn't get to see it.
For the next few days we gradually made our way home. After leaving Oklahoma City we camped at Springfield Missouri, then on to St. Louis Missouri the following night.
After a beautiful night we then moved on to Indianapolis Indiana. By this time I'm starting to get tired of driving and would like a couple of days off, but the schedule doesn't allow that, so on we go.
Our last night on the road was spent in Flint Michigan. As I have every day after we get set up, I washed the windows and front of the RV to remove the bugs and get ready for the next days travel.
Finally we're home and parked. Our first visitors made us feel welcome and very happy to be back.


As we travelled, we missed the grandkids most and it feels great to be back with them. Here, Kyle and I are sharing a cuddle moment. Feels great to be back.

This may be our last blog entry for awhile until we decide to hit the road again to.... who knows where.
