Silence is golden!

Wednesday, July 24

Today we were moving a little slow. Probably because we just didn't want to believe the trip is nearly over.

Tony made French toast, then we started packing stuff to go. I gave the kitties their sleepy treat, and we ended up pulling out a little later than we should have, but Tony's back was slowing him down a little and like I said, we didn't get moving fast.

We pulled out about 11:40. We decided instead of going back all of 130, which would have been quiet and easy, that we wanted to stop at Buc-ees for lunch and some great jerky.

We got to Buc-ees about 12:30 and ate BBQ sandwiches in the car, and of course got some jerky.

The drive was pretty uneventful... Luckily traffic moves pretty well, even though a lot of I-35 is under construction.

We decided once we got close to Dallas we'd stop at the Blue Beacon and get the truck and Mammoth washed. I stayed in the truck with the cats, and since it takes very little time, we didn't even get too warm.

Sparkly-clean!

We got home about 6:45 and began unloading. Man it was hot!!

That took all the energy we had, and we crashed for the evening.

Oh, and the title? Silence is golden? Well, the kitties didn't cry at all on the whole trip home!! Even during the Blue Beacon wash! They did so great! We are very happy they have adapted well to traveling.
