Day 90, April 27, 2015 Florida, Georgia, Tennessee

Wow!   90 days already.   I can’t believe it.   Greg asked me yesterday if I was still having fun and yes I am.   I could go without seeing Nashville or St. Louis for a while but overall it’s a lot of fun.   You never know what you are going to see.   Even areas you have seen before is different the next time you see it.   So we keep trucking!

The pictures today are of North Georgia and Tennessee.   We made it to just outside Nashville tonight before we had to stop.   700 miles to go tomorrow and probably a bit wednesday am.

Finally got some laundry done!   Good thing I packed extra undies!    Turning in.  Long day tomorrow.   Goodnight, y’all.

DG:  I asked Annie if she was still recording names of trucking companies. She said “Not unless I see one that’s really unusual”.  I don’t know how long our list is at present but I’m positive we could add 50 new names a day every day if we wanted to.  I think we just got wore out with it. But if we see one that catches our eyes we will let you know.

On our way to Iowa with orange juice. I get a chuckle out of the officers at the inspection station as we leave Florida.  Every time they ask us what we have and I say orange juice and they wave us on. The guy today didn’t even ask. I guess he figures every trucker knows the routine so when I pulled up to the window today he opened the window and just looked at me, waiting for me to say it. So I did. Orange juice. As I was driving away I thought I could have been a little more creative and said something like Florida’s finest, golden nectar, juice of the fruit, etc.  The one thing I am always tempted to say, but dare not, “cheap labor”, “amigos”, “truckload of muchachos”.  Nope, not going to say that.

Did see a big ATF Prevost Motorhome going down the road. All kinds of electronics on the top. Wonder if they were listening. Probably wanting an early version of the blog. Too bad guys. You’ll have to wait like everyone else.

Had a few more philosophical thoughts today but by the time we find a place to settle, (1 minute to spare today. Thanks navigator), I do my post trip inspection, dinner, and laundry tonight, all philosophical thought has left my brain. I should start writing these down. Hard to write while driving. Not that I’ve tried.

Okay, that’s all folks. Hope everyone is happy and well. Goodnight and God bless.

    Looking at your pictures of Tenn reminded me of Daddy’s barn. When I was little this company came by and painted on the barn ” See 7 states from rock city near chattanoga Tenn” never did forget that. Lol
