Woke up to Greg going – “oh no! It’s snowing!” Just a few flakes so far but it is pretty cold and the forecast says cold coming down and going all the way south to Georgia. 10 to 15 degrees below average. And we are going north to Michigan. Looks like I’ll have to get my boots back out. We are headed to Plainwell, Michigan for meat to take to Georgia.
Finally able to do laundry last night. I’ve been in sweats for two days. LOL
We had some extra time today since it’s only a 4 hour drive to michigan so Greg wanted to get a tire checked out that has been slowly leaking for a couple of weeks. Turns out there was a nail in the side of it. One new tire cost $600!! Ouch!!
The snow didn’t last long thank goodness. Just a few flurries around but boy did the temperature drop. It’s 28 right now but feels colder. It’s real windy which makes it seem worse.
Greg is all excited about the basketball game. I just put on my headphones and watch something else. I cannot stand all those whistles and squeaky shoes. But, He loves it and can’t wait to watch it. He even has his lucky hat on.
Keeping his eyes on the road even while I’m bugging him for a picture.
Nasty windmills. They sure mess up a pretty horizon.
Got to our stop in Plainwell, Michigan and dropped our trailer. On the way to the office we noticed the guy in the truck beside us has a big bird cage in the cab of the truck with him. We never saw the bird but judging the size of the cage it must be a big one. You see a lot of truckers with dogs, a few cats (I can’t imagine a litter box in a truck) but never a bird before. That’s a new one.
Found a walmart not too far from our stop so we got some med refills and groceries. Got a roast for dinner one night and plan to make some soup after we eat part of the roast. Got some chicken for chicken and dumplings and some stuff for crockpot lasagna again.
Time is running out on the clock so we decided to just stay here for the night. Long weekend coming up. 1,100 miles by Sunday night.
Going to watch a bit of TV and turn in. Goodnight y’all.
DG: Got me a lucky hat so you all can place your bets on UK. Like you haven’t already. How about them Cats, huh? Going all the way.
Annie told you it is cold and it is. 22 at 11:30 pm. I’m going to have a cup of hot tea and go to bed. We had probably the quickest pick up of all time. Trailer was loaded and waiting on us, got my papers, scaled and out the gate is 42 minutes. Has to be a world record.
Tea is done. Good night and God bless.
