We went for the breakfast at 6:30...would have preferred 6 as most other hotels do.
Pretty good...standard fare...scrambled eggs, sausages etc.
On the road by 7 regardless as we were pretty much packed.
Not much of a problem around Ft. Worth, but lots of construction around Waco both sides, makes driving more difficult and slower.
Very heavy rain around Oklahoma City. Very difficult to drive as the visibility and spray from other vehicles makes for heavy concentration especially at turnpike speeds, but we survived with no incidents.
Katie and I just stopped whenever we wanted and didn't worry about what time we were going to get to Council Bluffs as we have two night and all day Sunday with no driving. I drove all day and it took about 11 hours in all. Tired when we got to Council Bluffs.
We made a short stop at Kansas Star Casino for about 45 minutes. Katie made $68 and I made $50. So it was a good stop.
We had supper, and didn't think we were going to gamble any, but we did for awhile, and between Kansas Star and Council Bluffs, up net $200. But the machines seem very tight.
Rest of the night...relaxation. We stopped at a Walmart on the way, and got to king size pillows and pillow cases..we are tired of all these hotels with postage stamp pillows. We end up wrestling with them at night and they win.
and so ends another great day on the way home!
Travel to Winnipeg Monday...Yes!
more later
