We headed out for Florida this morning in snow. We left it in Ohio and picked back up again just past Lexington. The worst of it was in the mountains through Tennessee. A trucker friend of ours gave us some sage advice..."If there is spray coming off truck tires, you're on wet pavement. If they stop spraying, get to the nearest rest area, pour yourself a cocktail and wait it out." We made it to Lenoire, TN before we had the cocktail in the Walmart parking lot where we spent the night; 543 miles on Friday, 430 miles on Saturday. Spent the night in Valdosta, GA at a KOA.

What a wonderful way to start out retirement. You're all heading in the right direction! Safe travels.
I'm so glad you got through the mountains before all that snow came down! Hope to see you soon.....
