April 26 - We made it... and so the holiday relaxing begins!

After a great night's sleep we are back on the road again. The only difference is today should be the last longish day until we head north again. 

Wind...wind... and more wind....Kansas is definitely windy. 

What we noticed is that they do a lot of grass burning to rejuvenate the vegetation. An interesting concept!
Many many more miles of flat land. As we got closer to the Oklahoma and Missouri/Arkansas border we noticed more trees and hills.

We did make it into Oklahoma,  we were not sure if we would or not, but we did.

First town we came across was Picher, Oklahoma. It was pretty desolate, like a tornado wiped it out. Thanks to Google, we found out why. 



Pit stop time for Lu! She had a great time all by herself!
We are getting used to all the new fuel station names over here...

And the road signs.... what the heck is this about???

After a very rural...very winding road....did I say rural?? ....we made it to Branson Missouri!!


This is our view from the RV  site for the next 3 glorious nights....George is looking forward to a break from the long days of driving.

Cheers from Missouri!

Today was a lazy day. As no cell service and wifi at the campground, I needed some down time to book some stuff. Found a great dog park and Lu made a new little friend... Like little....8 week old little pitti.... They had a great time and then back into town. Just like most towns outside of a National Park...there's a bear thing going on. We didn't stay long....little walking...late lunch and back to the trailer. George hitting the enormous candy store....$22.00 later.....omg Second night of firefly watching was even better than the first. We saw some Blue Ghost fireflies....the males stay lit for up to a minute and glow a soft blue colour...there are not many in this area as they are mostly in the Asheville forests so I was super excited to see them. On our way back I had a firefly on my hand for the longest time....he just kept walking and blinking and walking....💗 I never like to say that I won't see them again here in th...

June 6 - Downtown Asheville

The temperatures here are refreshing....it cooled down last night to about 14 degrees...first time in a long time that the air conditioner was turned off and windows opened to let the breeze in through the night... We spent the day tripping around Asheville. Lu is in Doggy Daycare today so we are on our own. There are many large old buildings with individual little boutique stores and eateries.. Our first church we have been in on this trip...we got invited in so ..why not! Very cool area, we mostly window shopped....browsed around...enjoyed the cool old buildings... We saw quite a few old buildings converted into "Art walks" where there were individual artist displays/sales....love this guy!!!! A bike made out of wood....$60,000.00!!! Then back out on the streets!! Asheville is Beer Capital USA...and by 2:00...still no beer in our be...
