Day 6 on way to Texas

44 degrees in Cape Girardeau, MO at 8:30 Friday night.  After getting one of our 30 lb. propane tanks filled here at the RV Park, we went to brunch with brother Don & wife Vicki at the IHOP.  Visited a bit at their place and then drove to where his daughter Jenn is staying.  She had had both kidneys removed and is on dialysis and waiting for plans for chemo for the cancer they found in her.  She had planned to go out to eat with us this evening, but was not feeling well, so we visited her a bit at her place.

Later we went for a walk at Don's place and then drove to Gordonville, MO for catfish supper.  Back to the trailer now and will leave in the morning to the west for Branson, MO.
