Quick update of our travels for those  interested.  We are now camped out at
the Flying J on Interstate 44 in  Joplin, Missouri.  All's going well except
for the weather.  After  some really nice warm weather in New Ken we got rain
all last night and sleeping  in the CARAT with the rain pounding on the METAL
roof all night was not  pleasant.  Today it was pretty much cloudy and cold all
the way from  Indianapolis to Joplin.  We had hoped to get to Oklahoma City
for the night  but no way.  We left late and at 6 or 7,  we lost an hour there
somewhere with a time change, my butt was too sore to continue on.  So, on
we go in the morning !  Maggie, we may not make it to your place until
Saturday.  We'll see how it goes tomorrow.  The CARAT has been keeping  a steady 70 ~
75 mph no problems.  Truck traffic is incredible.  There  are more trucks on
the road than cars !  Holly Molely !

Cheers,
