Day 110, May 17, 2015 Annie – Ashland, Greg Ashland, North Carolina, Mississippi – Getting new truck for KLLM

Taking my sweetie to the airport at 5 am.  Not happy about it but time to move onward.  Really hate to see him go but hopefully it’s only for a week or so.  

DG:  Up at 4:30. That would be am. Got to the airport in plenty of time. Good thing too. It was hard pulling away from the car. Did not want to leave. But, this is the path we feel we were led to so feel obligated to see it through. Got to Charlotte early, next flight doesn’t leave for 3 1/2 hours. Plenty of time to walk to Bojangles for breakfast.  

Wanted to get a picture of the Michael Jackson impersonator that got on the plane in Huntington, but he moved too fast. Not kidding, this guy looked ready to do a show, red jacket, black hat, makeup, the whole works. Never know what your going to see these days. 

Got to Charlotte and there was a Guy Fieri wanna be. Then, got on the plane and there sat Medusa. I’m serious. Girl had a burr cut all around but on top the hair was long and twisted into what looked like a head full of snakes. 

What a trip. 

Got to the hotel around 1:45pm local time. Flight was smooth and uneventful. 

Shower and a short nap and off to explore. Just down the street there’s a Wal Mart. Stocked up for the week. 

Well, here’s a couple of pics. Hope you enjoy. 

  

This is a mobile of flying machines at the First in Flight Bar inside Charlotte Airport. 

  

This is me getting a pedicure in the airport. This was a treat long overdue.  

  
That’s the Queen City in the distance there. 

  
Inside Jackson-Evers, MS airport, named for Civil Rights leader Medgar Evers. 

  
Looks like rain. 

 
Here it is folks, the “Crawfish King”. Too bad they were closed today. Too bad too, i had a real hankerin for some craw dad. 

 
This is a sign no trucker wants to see. Means stay out you. 

  
Finally, I’ve found them. Lips anyone?  

Well that’s all for me. Another early morning tomorrow. Good night and God Bless. 

Annie – not much going on on my end.   No impersonators or medusa.   Just watching tv.  I think me and mom have watched hallmark channel movies all day.   Must be because I’m missing my sweetheart.   Hopefully tomorrow I will feel like moving a bit more.   

Goodnight y’all.
