4/15

Tax day…file & smile.

We are in Nashville, TN, Music City USA.

After Kansas City we drove across Missouri to St Louis. On the way we stopped at Nostalgia Ville and scored two genuine, original Pink Flamingoes to keep Her Pinkness Company. We arrived at the Rt 66 St Louis KOA pretty late and settled in. Heavy rain overnight so a lazy morning. We visited the Missouri Botanical Gardens. A great tropical rain forest in the Climatron. A tour at the Gateway Arch followed. No ride on the tram, too windy & rainy. On to Hard Rock Cafe for more pins!

On Friday, we headed south and crossed the swollen Mississippi on a ferry…that’s the photo de jour. Camped at the Trail of Tears State Park. That’s a story for all Americans, to be shamed.

We’re on to the Grand Ole Opry tonight, so, more later.

J&A

p.s. we are about to turn north for the final push home…ETA Tuesday, 4/29, 3 p.m. +/-

  1. I hope you have time to see Savannah on your way back.

  2. 2 weeks left! you will be returning to much nicer weather than your departure. postcards have been great, but the last 2 were the best — K state (the purple team) had one of the best b-ball players in the country this year, and i bet you didn’t even know it! took swedish medical terminology to work to educate my co-workers. see you soon and safe travels until then. love, peg p.s is a climatron like an orgasmatron?
