We decided to spend a second night in Paducah, KY after all it is a big quilt city. :-)Tuesday Aug. 10th we went to the quilt museum - what a humbling experience!! Then made a disappointing stop at the Hancock fabric store - no deals there but I did buy a couple pieces of fabric ( it's an addiction). It amazes me that we can go places at home and never run into people we know. While in Paducah we meet two different couples one at camp the other while in Hancock's. One we ran into later at the museum and the other we ran into at Red Lobster that night.
On the 11th we drove through Illinois and arrived in Missouri at 1:45 pm. That night we stopped at a campground in Higginsville, MO. We struck up a conversation with the couple in the lot next to us. They introduced themselves as Barbara and Jerry. I'm not sure if they believed us when we said that was our names too. About a half hour after we got setup a staff member came by and told us a bad storm was on the way with 50 to 60 mile an hour winds, rain and hail. About a half hour later it arrived. It was a little nerve wracking as the trees around us started whipping around and the RV rocked back and forth. Fortunately there was no hail and it only lasted about 15 minutes.
Four days into our trip and so far it is a lot of driving on boring highways but I'm still excited to be making the trip and looking forward to what is to come.
