Although everyone has enjoyed seeing the sights in St. Louis, all seem eager to get back on the road, following the route of the intrepid Lewis and Clark.
Our first travel briefing took an interesting twist when page 1 and 2 of the travel log had to be discarded because of construction on Hwy 94. Instead of heading south from St. Charles to follow the Missouri River, with a visit to the home of Davy Crockett, we got onto I-70 for the 250 mile run across the state of Missouri to Platte City and the Basswood Country RV Resort.
I-70 is a good road, fairly flat and straight, but not terribly scenic (especially if you travel it 4-6 times a year as Ralph and I do when we visit our daughter in Virginia or go to Florida for the Winter).
The best thing about our trip today is that the longest driving day of the whole trip is now behind us AND everyone arrived safely in camp.
We are looking forward to tonight's social and primed for the upcoming adventures.
Look out, here we come, Kansas City.
