Second leg

Wednesday, June 10

Our next leg of the trip was from Marion, AR to Terre Haute, Indiana. This would take us up through part of Missouri and through illinois, into Indiana. We pulled out about 10.






Tony had been posting some of our trip plans on Facebook, and one of his former coworkers happened to see it. They now live in Mount Vernon, Illinois, which happened to be on our route. We agreed to stop at a truck stop, to visit for a few minutes. It was great to see the Roodes and get to catch up for a little bit. 

While Tony was meeting up with them, I stayed in the truck with the cats. While I was waiting for them to come back, a chime went off, and when I looked over, the fuel gauge was acting strangely. It seemed to work itself out once we got back on the road. Don't know exactly what happened, but we'll keep it in mind.

The rest of the trip went just fine, and we made it to Terre Haute about 6:30. We got set up pretty quickly again, since we were not going to unhitch.  We were pretty hungry, and this KOA has a cafe. So Tony went over and ordered a pizza to go.  Man, that is the best pizza after long day of towing! 




After we ate, we walked around the park. This is a pretty park with lots of trees shading most of it. We saw a couple sitting outside with their cat on a long leash. We stopped and visited with them a while. Turns out they are building a home in Crossville, at the same RV community where our Heartland Owners Club President lives in Crossville, Tennessee. Small world!

After we returned and watched a little TV, I had some work to do, so I worked for a while and Tony went to bed. 

Tomorrow, Goshen!
