We found a room about 2 hours out of Austin, Texas


I was not sure what hotel we were staying at. Like I said before the days were running into each other. 


Oh look it must be Best Western? Wow I am so glad I take crazy pictures, the reason is, I know where we stayed last night? 
Well we still had a drive ahead of ourselves. I think it is still two more hours until we reach Austin, Texas. 




I think we got here around 9am or so? But look there are people ahead of us. How can this be? 
Jeanne went up to see all that was going on, as I stood there waiting in line. 



The guy in the yellow shirt was taking orders. So as it is, SOLD OUT. They don't open for another two more hours, but they are sold out for today. he told us we could wait around and see if there is anything left? 





So after we found out that their meats for the day are sold out. I just took a walk around to see the restaurant itself. Nothing fancy at all. Jeanne bought a couple of items and we left. A roll of butcher paper and a T shirt. 
Back on the road again. Mean while Jeanne was talking with her sister Kathi. She has a doctor's appointment down the road we are traveling. So we started heading her way.   


Saw this sign and Jeanne and I talked about stopping. Why not see what they have to offer? 





After we got in here, Jeanne was telling e that, she thinks,  Franklin buys his eat form here. She remember a video of  Franklin going to his butcher to buy some brisket. 
So we bought some brisket and other cooked meats. Started back on the road again. 

This is where meet Jeanne's sister Kathi. It was lunch time, so we ordered and had lunch with her. So while saying our good byes, we loaded up the cooler she used to take some things back to her home in Texas. She loaded it up with all kinds of frozen deer meat. We right on our way home again. 




This I thought was a great picture. It is a large flame coming out of the tower at a oil refinery. But I guess the flame and all the lights it just didn't come out the way I saw it. 
Well this is the town of Sulphur, Louisiana We stayed at a Day's Inn here. It was the worst hotel we have ever stayed at. Jeanne and I needed a place to sleep and this place popped up on hotels. 
Well the first thing was it was late at night 11pm or so. We were exhausted from all the driving and just pushing ourselves.
So walked in and I spilled my yogurt on the floor, Jeanne got a wash clothe and I cleaned up the mess. Mean while I was pushing this clothe around I noticed how dirty the floor was. After that I put on my flip flops and where I walked they were sticking to the floor. 
Very unhappy. But we spent the night and got up and I showed the manger as I was checking out. I told her what has happen. she didn't say a word. I just told her I was no happy at all. No response at all. 
Well we are heading home again. 
I started feeling pretty bad, you know no sleep and just wanting to get home. 
So we drove all day and during the night we pulled into Florida. I drove all the way to the Florida Turnpike. Go on and then stopped at the first rest area. Pulled in the parking lot and we drop our seats back and grabbed a blanket and tried to fall a sleep.  I think we were there for about 2 hours, just could not sleep. So Jeanne told me that she would drive. It is a little more than two hours home. Great as she was driving I kept asking her if she was okay? She told me to try to fall a sleep and she would wake me if she was to tired. I woke up in Vero Beach area. Fantastic. We got home and crashed in our bed. 
It was around 6am on Friday morning the 31st. NEW YEARS EVE. GREAT TO BE HOME. 
I thank Our Lord for our trip and the safe traveling we did with Him. 
I am still thanking Him. 


Well i woke up
