Day 141, June 17, 2015 Tennessee, Texas

Woke up at 3:30 this am and on the road around 4.   Greg has a full thermos of coffee so he is set to go.   Hope the rain in Dallas is gone or slowed down some by the time we get there.  Looks like Tropical Storm Bill is having a good time.  

We passed the new Bass Pro Shop in Memphis this morning.   Big pyramid complete with lodge, restaurant, fish tanks, etc.  Looks pretty cool.

In Arkansas for a bathroom break.  Decided to get breakfast.   I don’t know about you but I always feels better when there is an ex army guy with a gun on his hip in line.  

  

Made it to Dallas without a lot of fuss on our end from Tropical Storm Bill.   Rain off and on but not heavy.   

Parked for the night and decided to go to Soul Mans barbecue across the street.   Oh my!  I’m about to bust and I probably didn’t eat half of my soul bowl.   Mine had Fritos, spicy beans, cheese, pulled pork and beef topped with barbecue sauce and jalapeños.   Gregs had the same except he had sausage instead of beef and onions.   It was so good but huge portions.   

   
    

DG:  We have been blessed when it comes to weather.  Storms all around us but we managed to avoid the bad stuff.  Dinner was good.  Ex-governor Rick Perry ate there. I know that from his pictures on the wall showing him in the restaurant posing with the owners.

11:00 appointment means we sleep in a little in the morning as we are only 30 minutes away from our destination.  All is quite in the truck stop.

Good night and God bless.
