4:30. Up and almost ready to go.   Caffeine first!   We are finishing up this leg of the trip this morning.   Only 115 miles away but need to be there by 8 am so giving ourselves a little bit extra time to be sure.   

Stopped at a rest area on the way and saw some really pretty flowers.   Must like a lot of heat.   I’m not sure what they are but really beautiful.   Bet the hummingbirds would love them.  

 We dropped off our load at 8 am.  Now we get to wait until this afternoon for a load to take.  Apparently Greg and I are the only English speaking people in Laredo.   Granted, we are only a couple of miles from the border. 

DG:  All true.  Except for all of the American businesses around everywhere else looks like a foreign country.  And sounds like it too.  

I’m dog sitting in the parking lot at Michael’s enjoying a cigar while Annie looks for yarn. 

Well, it’s four in the morning and we are sitting at a dock waiting to have our load reworked because the previous driver took a load that was overweight. And while I do not know why he did not take care of this problem it is up to us to have it corrected. The other issue is that we did not have an appointment to have this resolved so the company doing the rework had to work is in. We have been here since 3:30 yesterday afternoon. And they still haven’t started on our trailer. On top of that we have to go to the dealer to have our truck looked at as a check engine light came up on my dash a little bit ago. 

But all is well. We are well rested, our clocks are reset and when the time comes we will be ready to go. Heading for Florida to see the kids. 

Love to all and God bless.
