Well, it's the first day of my big adventure and I'm already behind scheduke. I wanted to leave Marceline no later than 3 pm, but didn't pull out until almost 11. Thanks to John Carver for his help in moving the rest of my stuff  to storage. I couldn't believe how much there still was. I definitely need to work on my hoarder tendencies. Lulu and I are stopped at our favorite QT near Harrisonville , the last time we'll be here for awhile. I'm headed to Joplin and will have breakfast with the kids before heading on.  I'll need to sneak in a few naps along the way.  I hope to make it at least halfway today (Monday ). I'll keep you posted!
