Greetings from Vicksburg Mississippi. Today we will arrive at Gadsden. It has been an interesting trip. Lots of rain and cold temperatures. First night Sunday we didn't make it to Phoenix as planned but stopped at Quartzite just inside Arizona. Nelda, Nina and I stayed at a desert campsite and Sheri, Sean and kids stayed at motel nearby.

On Monday we got to El Paso and again camped with kids in nearby hotel. Tuesday was another long day. Tried to get to Arlington but had to stop at Weatherford. Rain and wind so bad that Sheri was having problem with night blindness. Found a nice new Econo Lodge and we all stayed there. It was nice for Nelda and I to have a warm room for the night and good showers before heading off yesterday.

Got here earlier but still rained all the way, so we are staying at a Best Western and another comfortable night before getting to our destination. Nina gets to have the motorhome to herself again.

News says that it is snowing in Gadsden but hope it is melted by time we get there later today. Anyway this motel has a high speed internet connection in the room so able to clean out email and record this on my blog.

Thanks for all the prayers. We have seen their result in our safety and smooth sailing! God bless you'all.
