The end of a beautiful day!

We had beautiful, clear blue skies today as we made our way along the highways together.  We left Tennessee this morning, and have now driven into Kentucky, Illinois, and Missouri.

From Tennessee into Kentucky

Beautiful river and clear sky as we cross the bridge into Missouri

We made it to Missouri

I even drove the Condor for about 100 miles today!  I have driven it a little, here and there, since we purchased it, but today was the test for myself, and I made a pretty good grade, for such a distance!!  I'm very proud of myself, and the others in our group gave me high fives!!  I even think Butch was beaming with pride!!

Our stop tonight is Sikeston Missouri and we have all set up camp at Town & Country Camping and RV Park.  A pretty campground and their motto is "Your Home Away From Home", and that certainly fits it tonight for us!!

For dinner tonight, we went to the famous Lambert's Cafe.   They even have shuttle buses to come pick you up at the area campgrounds & airports, take you to the restaurant, and bring you right back to the door of your RV.  Can't ask for better service!!   They are the only home of throwed rolls!  And boy, do they throw them at ya when you're ready for more!  They are about the size of softballs, wonderfully delicious and hot when you catch them!  James attempted to catch one tonight, but managed to hit Wallace in the back of the head with it, and it fell straight to the floor!  No problems, though, they had a whole plan of fresh out of the oven rolls, and quickly tossed James one, which he caught and quickly 'took care of', if you know what I mean!!!!   :-)  Any doubters or curiosity seekers, can check out Lambert's website at www.throwedrolls.com and it's one of those restaurants that if you leave hungry, it's your fault!  Needless to say, we were all as full as ticks at a dog show!

A roll comes our way!

So many interesting things to see, plus awesome food too!

The 7 heading west, along with the server!

When the shuttle bus brought us back to the campground, the girls decided to begin a game of Mexican Train Dominoes at Judy's rig.  We played about 5 or 6 rounds, when we figured we'd just play a little bit every evening, and it was time to call it a night!  The guys all got together and planned out our day tomorrow, which will begin with trips for each of us to refuel, and then our plan is to head to Branson Missouri, maybe manage to see a show and then call it a night!

What a wonderful end to our day!  Safe, sound, full, cool, and in a nice comfy bed to sleep the night away and see what tomorrow brings for the 7 Heading West !!!!!
