On The Road Again

Greetings from beautiful Monett, Missouri! We're here at the "Crossroads to Everywhere" enjoying our first morning out of Kansas City. As much as we love, love, loved being in our old hometown, we are oh so happy to be on the road again.

Chances are nobody else refers to Monett as any kind of crossroad, but our family members who live here joke that this tiny little town in the hills of southwest Missouri must be something like that for us. And, we suppose it is. This is the fourth time we've brought our rolling home to town. And, as always, it's really good to be here.

Yesterday was an especially notable travel day. It was the first time we've left Kansas City without stopping for service on our way out of town! We're taking that as a sign of good things to come! We did make a quick stop for a propane fill, and then it was smooth sailing for Bullwinkle. This is one moose that is happy to be heading south!

We were planning to spend a night or two here. But, after sitting in one spot for two months, nobody at our house, especially our girl kitty, really feels like traveling today. Tomorrow's forecast calls for wind and rain between here and Oklahoma City, which is our next destination. So, it looks like we might just sit here in this comfy spot until Sunday morning. We'll keep an eye on the weather and see what happens. It's such a blessing to have that kind of flexibility. That's one of the many things we love about living life on the road.

Meanwhile, we're thinking about heading out to our favorite breakfast spot in town this morning. Then, a bit more family visiting is in order.

Yes, it feels good to be on the road again! We've really missed it!
