Well, we got up pretty early today and got things packed in the car and got ready to go. Kind of made Sparky scared because he doesn’t really know what is happening. He knows there is something different going on.
We got Sparky to the Vet’s about 9:15AM and got him boarded. The gas station beside the vet clinic was $3.65 per gallon but thought I would wait. Didn’t really need much gas right now. The trip went quite well, depressing when we got to St Louis, gas was $3.98 per gallon, quite a jump in just a 140 miles. I waited until we got into Illinois, $4.09 a gallon here, wonder if it will keep on going up?? We got gas in Litchfield for $3.89 or maybe it was $3.99, I can’t remember for sure.
We drove through a lot of rain on the way up but it cleared up around Peoria or maybe before that. The car is really dirty.
We got checked into the motel which turned out to be very nice. I think they remodeled the room, new carpeting and new tile in bathroom and a small flat TV. We were really tired but decided we needed to go see Marilyn at the nursing home before going to bed.
She is really skinny! She seems to be doing pretty good but is really weak. We visited for awhile before heading back to the room.
We had a sandwich in the room. Nothing special. We are going out tomorrow and probably every day while we are here.
We are ready for bed though so…yep you guessed it…Night Y’all…
