Just Beat the Rain
Road Trip Day 2 - Nashville, TN to Oklahoma City, OK
This picture was taken in front of our 1st hotel that we later learned was closed because there was no water due to a water main break. We quickly found another hotel nearby, grabbed McDonalds, and got in as the rain and wind came hard. As we were waiting for our food, we were searching the area expecting to see a funnel cloud. Now we are relaxing in the room safe and sound watching the storm. We have not had McDonalds for a while, and I think we have outgrown it. When did they reduce the size of the beef patty to a slider? I know, I sound like the old Wendy’s commercial “Where’s the Beef”? Fries are still the best.
Today, we travelled 700 miles through TN, AK, and OK . We left the mountains, crossed the Mississippi, and headed to the flat lands passing many cattle farms. There was not a lot to see along the way, so we just kept on driving and putting miles behind us. Two quick stops for gas separated all the driving. We are still having fun, but there was not as much to see as yesterday. I think that trend will continue for a couple days.
Weather looks nice for tomorrow. It was hot today, thank goodness for air conditioning. Of course, it will be a different story when we are riding our bikes. Hopefully, it will cool down a bit or we will need to adjust the riding route. Time for a beer some relaxation. Thanks for reading.
