Our Old Friend....


We'll be spending time again with our old friend, the one who has been relegated to the pole barn, the minute gas hit $1.50 a gallon it became necessary to find something else to drive, but we decided it wouldn't hurt to save our comfortable old vehicle just for traveling long-distance trips.
I'm so glad, because once you've been driving for six hours straight, it sure feels good to stretch out in the back seat and take a nice nap. And, if we want to pick up more passengers for a daytrip while we're gone, we can do that, and everybody can ride together and visit.

We've been a lot of places together during the years we've had her, we've traveled a lot of miles, and seen a lot of the country. We've got plans for her this week, she's taking us to see Jamie + Thad.

I used to have a Suburban and loved it! I downsized to a Yukon and like it too. Have a great trip.

We filled up today on the way down and gas was under 1.45 a gallon and what a change from August when we came down and gas was over $4 a gallon!!!!!!

We arrived safely and had a good trip except for a bad traffic jam north of Nashville, which we navigated around....eventually finding our way back to I-65. We made it in 11 hours! I will be checking back in during the week with updates!
