HOME

We made it home yesterday around noon after driving 1930 miles in 3 1/2  days.  It was an interesting trip with all that is going on with the virus.  We did all of our "dining" at the fast food places.  It was KFC the first night, a small Pizza place the second and Mac Donald's the third night.  The gas stations were all open and we were able to get sandwiches for our lunches.  We had plenty of snacks with us, so there wasn't any starving.  Gas was highest priced in Lake Havasu ($2.49) and second highest in Winslow, AZ.  After we got out of AZ, the price was under $2.00 everywhere we stopped.  The cheapest gas we got was to fill up the tank today at Sam's Club in St. Cloud.  It was $1.659.  Most of the places were in the $1.70 to $ 1.80 range.  There were lots of Snow Birds on the road with us.  Majority were Canadians, with the rest mostly folks going to Minnesota, Iowa and the Dakota's.   The weather was real good the first two days and real rainy, foggy and snowy the third day.  The last day, from Ankeny Iowa to home, started out foggy, but we got sunshine about the time we got to Minnesota. It was a long tiring trip, but a safe one and we made it.  We got out grocery shopping done today, so we are good to stay in and hibernate for awhile.  Sorry, no pictures this time.  May get some during the next few days of hibernation.  Everyone take care.
