We are Free!

They finished the RV Wednesday afternoon and we hit the road south looking to warm up!  Spring here in Iowa certainly doesn’t look like spring to me!

Windmills right in town

Windmills right in town

I am standing right under as electricity is being generated!  There are windmills everywhere in Iowa, this one was right on the school grounds in Forest City, IA.  The wind was howling the whole time we were there so I guess that makes sense.

Paul was so excited, on our route we came upon the Worlds Largest Truckstop and of course we had to stop!

If you are traveling and need anything this place has it!

A truckstop bigger and cleaner than any others I have been to in the past 5 years!  They have a barber, laundry, dentist as well as all the other stuff.  The store is huge and has everything!  Trucks, parts, accessories and if you ever need a Barbie Pink Semi  they got one!  I’m thinking truck drivers are pretty special when they arrive home with gifts they purchased from their trip!

We headed southeast and into Illinois where it is definitely much warmer.  We put the coats and scarves away and by Friday am, I’m back in capris and summer tops!  The sun is so nice!
