Missouri



It's funny what you miss when you fly somewhere. I do not like to complain about airplane rides because they get you somewhere so much faster than car can take you. However, I was able to see the arch in St. Louis and the scenery all along the way. Because of an accident we also drove through a sleeper of a town, Waynesville, Missouri. We would have missed it had we been able to continue down the highway.

The majority of the trip was sunny with blue skies. Things did not get rough until after the sun went down when the snow started to accumulate. Lucky for us the accumulation didn't touch the highways [yet] and we arrived surprised at the hotel to find four inches of snow at our feet.


Despite a few bumps along the way [what else do you get from moving across the country during the winter?] we arrived in Missouri, near Springfield to finish up our first part of the journey. A shorter drive to follow tomorrow.
