I thought it was Oklahoma where the winds came barreling cross the plain?

Ain't been through there with a moho so can't really answer your question.

I've done it many times and always the same. Lol.
Not in a motorhome, many times in a car or truck; grew up in NE. Yes, it always blows

Now OK, that is in a class by itself. Rode across in 2009 on my motorcycle. I swear I had a 10* list to port for the entire trip.

Had a fun afternoon, a little tongue-in-cheek here. The dogs got in a fight Friday. When I separated them, got bit on my wrist. Nothing special, it has happened before. This time was a little different. Noticed my wrist was swelling around the bite and turning red. Went to the walk-in clinic after lunch. Clean it up,put a bandage on it, nothing to it. Oh, BTW, when was your last tetanus shot? Turns out they could not find where I last had one, soooooo Darn things burn.

Love the dogs, but was not too happy with Clyde about that time. Now I have to take antibiotics for 10 days. That means happy hour consists of a soda.

So I have to tell youse mutants what a nice little town Payola, KS is and how great Marty and Bob are.

We wimped out and didn't make it to the Farmers Market. Marty said it started at 7:30 and ended at 11. Well I think I got up at 10. My bad. But...

I did have lunch with them at a really good BBQ joint in Payola. And Annie and I really like Bethovens #9 in Payola. German with some Italian mixed in for good measure. A desert counter to be appreciated from afar for me but man... they have you covered.

I had my first beer since I don't know when. And it was a good one, Paulaner Salvator Double Bock. There is no PoP... but the're witnesses.

So we're doing the TV thing and headed to MMDC-R tomorrow. More mutants to tag on the way west and south and west again. And south... or...

Little update on the barn raising, by the way I was the ground crew!

Two of my boys that actually work together pretty good. Now yesterday at the lake they were pretty competitive on the surf boards.

Mini C with dieseltech..... Just had to make a call to gloat, to Wayne... But Wayne was shopping with Earlene, so short call.

Turns out we are near where Ken grew up, so our driving tour was first rate.... In Wisconsin.....

I'm not going to ask her but I think Earlene would agree with you.

Shopping as in "groceries." I have to maintain my shape. BTW, you can't rub it in as we were the first to visit with Ken a couple years ago. Right Ken?
SO THERE!
