Apologies

For those of you following our trip I would like to apologize for the lack of posts this week. We have accelarated to Warp Speed as the road trip and being in the Santa Fe have started to grow weary. Here is a quick update and we will post Saturday from Baker City.
We left Round O about 1000 Sunday morning after returning to pick up the toothbrush charger that Ron left behind. We have been to Nashville, Memphis, Little Rock, Kansas City and are now in the Comfort Suites in Lincoln, Nebraska. We have seen The Country Music HOF, Opryland, the Ryman, Graceland. Beale Street, the Negro League Museum and Jazz Museum. We have had a couple of legs that would have been nice to do over, especially the part where we blew past the Shiloh Battlefield in Tennessee, despite having dinner in the middle of it. Yesterday we looked at the Navigator and realized that by the end of the day that we would only be 1100 miles from Oregon, although we passed by it on Hwy 29 last night. That set our minds to be stupid and grind it out late last night, and over the next two days. Fortunately the eclipse last night kept Connie occupied so she did not pay close attention to how stiff she was getting. So, Friday night we land in Baker City for several days and then head for Newberg next week.

Like I said more in-depth posts coming Saturday. Bye.
