I finally was all packed (unless there's something I forgot, which most likely there is) and was able to leave out about 3 pm Sunday afternoon, Oct 23. The first few days I was quite busy getting used to driving a Class A, but then I settled in as it became much like driving the Volvo 770 semi back many years ago. I began to be at ease with it all.
The biggest challenge however was getting Sasha used to all the different sights, sounds and smells associated with roadside rests, truck stops, and traffic. So many people, so many changing scenes, such loud noises coming from humongous shapes rolling on so many wheels!! And then of course the ground all around smelled different than back in her familiar yard..... however, by the time one week had passed she had settled right in to the routine. First out to pee, back in to eat, second out for further elimination and a training walk. sleep until about lunch-time. Oh such is the complex life of our furry friends!

Meanwhile on one of those days we took a side-trip to visit the boyhood home of Abraham Lincoln.
The old structures were quite interesting to me
....especially this one built with hand-hewn square beams!
The beautiful split-rail fences reminded me of long ago unhurried times
Practically everything they needed was supplied on the homestead.
A kind gentleman took my picture...
Time to get back in the motorhome, as we still had a ways to go before night fall.
Ps. 104:14 "He (the Lord) causes the grass to grow for the cattle,
and vegetation for the labor of man, so that he may bring forth food from the earth"
Thanks for stopping by!
I am smiling while thinking of you on the road ... and glad I am driving something way smaller.
