September 21, 2007 – Wind, Wind, and more Wind

The wind started up during the night and woke us with the motor home shaking. NOAA radio had issued a wind alert (>45 mph) until 8 AM. It was wild.


We did decide to travel today even with the wind (they ranged ~ 20-30 mph) and Andy did a great job driving.

We crossed the Missouri:


And are camped at the R&R Campground in Mitchell. We will be here for 2 days for a reset (charging batteries, groceries, laundry, cleaning, etc.) This is a nice private campground with room between sites including grass and trees. Plus they have cable TV and free WiFi and the price was right with our Passport America membership.

So today was grocery and other shopping.

The wind did calm down tonight – YEA.
