First Day on the road in 2024

 


Had an errand to run before leaving this morning.  Stopped by Osco to pick up some meds at 9 o'clock and then I was off.  Little cool at around 25 degrees but sunny with a light wind.

We traveled from Bloomington to Joplin, MO approximately 445 miles with one stop for gas.  Yuma laid in the back the whole way.  He is a great traveler.

Planning on taking four days of 400 miles to get to Apache Junction.  One down and three to go.  It was a long day for me, but hopefully it gets better.  Driving the Jeep is very touchy.  The steering wheel is very touchy and will move from side to side quite easily, so no pictures on the road.  Only when we stop.

See you later.
