We stopped here at noon for breakfast 
Cool bridge going into Missouri 



Bill and I enjoying Fazoli’s 
I sure was thinking of Adam when a bus arrive and this soccer team invaded Fazoli’s. 


Cotton field that almost looks like snow


Round bales of cotton 


Peyton and her friend Mia made these cute bracelets tonight 
Maddy sent me this precious picture of Brielle

We decided before bed, that we would leave around 6 instead of 5 in the morning. It was raining when we got by Hemlock.  It wasn’t heavy rain at least.  It was pretty much done by the time we got to St. Louis.  Texted with Vikki and Adam, then Melissa, then a short text from Kimmy answering my text and letting me know Jared was home safely.  Lots of construction In Illinois.  We reached the halfway point at around 2:35.


We stopped twice for gas and switched drivers each time.  We snacked on crackers and peanut butter, Clementines, and a couple of mini snickers.


We stopped at 6 p.m. in Popular Bluff, Missouri and stayed at the Fairfield Inn.  It was a very clean and nice motel.  Fruit and baked goods out for us to snack on in the lobby, a small but warm pool and a nice fitness center.  Also a great set up for our continental breakfast in the morning, with good creamer! Yay!  


We went to Fazoli’s for dinner.  I have missed going there since they left our town.  It was so good.  We got invaded by a boys soccer team while we were there. They were all very well behaved!


After we got back to the hotel, Bill read on the book he just started.  I read my Bible and worked on my Bible Study lesson.  Had to miss Bible study today, but keeping up with it.  Very good study!
