We're finally back to our main computer for the blog after our 11 day trip up north, but I still can't show you a few pictures, because they're on the other computer. Before we left Branson and put the RV in storage at the campground, we had two eating experiences-one bad and one good. Don was hungry for lobster, so we went to a lobster buffet at Whipper Snappers-don't ever go there! Some of the food was hard as rocks, others tough and tasteless. The lobsters were limited and consisted of about five bites. When they asked how it was, I told them, and she actually told me the food sat there all afternoon. Of course there was no apology-just give me the $30. Yuk!! Our good experience was at Andy Williams' Moon River Grille. The decor was tasteful with some pictures of Andy and friends and his gold records around the bar area. They serve recipes from Andy's mother's comfort food. Very good.
Anyway, on November 18th, we drove to Russ' in Omaha, and got to go to Jenna's swimming meet(she did very well), and I had my dental checkup. We were also able to finish our shopping, before heading to Grinnell. The weather was awful between Omaha and Des Moines. This is what it looked like.
There were several accidents-here's a truck that apparently went under a Post Office semi, and ripped all the back wheels off of it. It's a lousy picture of the truck, but you can see part of the smashed part.
The wheels from the semi were about a block back in the center. I guess this proves it doesn't take much snow to cause havoc.
Of course, we can't forget the beauty of snow, even at a rest stop!
