Currently in Raymore MO (Low 60 A Stray Afternoon Thunderstorm High 78)
We recently took our first extended trip in the Tucson from Kerrville Texas to Raymore MO. This was certainly different than our last 14 years in the SUV versus towing the RV. Plus for the first time our cats traveled with us instead of back in the RV (more on that later).
Since it was the first time for our new mode of travel, and considering we were taking some stuff from Kerrville that will remain in Raymore, we got a later start than we would have liked about 2p, instead of our normal 10a-2p travel days.
About an hour before we left we gave the kitties a mild sedative. 30 minutes into the trip we wish we would have given them more! That being said the kitties did adapt pretty well. By the end of the first day Probie had found her perch to ride out the trip and LJ slept on the console between us.
Our first stop was at the Homewood Suites in West Fort Worth (Cityview) TX. We got there in time for the evening reception of soup and salad. We struggled whether to give the sedatives again for the 2nd day but eventually decided to.
Our next stop was the Home2 Suites in Muskogee OK (a Hilton HHonors Hotel). The cats were amazing this leg. Probie immediately crawled up to her perch and LJ got on the console. Home2 Suites provides a hot breakfast but not an evening reception so Bob headed out to an all time favorite for supper; Taco Bueno. It was as good as we remember.
The next day after a hot breakfast at Home2 Suites we departed for Raymore MO. Since the cats were so good yesterday we decided not to sedate and it was not needed. Probie again immediately crawled up to her perch and LJ got on the console.
We already had plans to get a pizza from Minskys in Raymore once we got there but what we didn't know was that this location of Minskys was going to close after it closed on Sunday night. So we got a large pizza for leftovers and then Saturday night we split and order of chicken parmesan and a side salad.
We have been here awhile, been real busy getting the new place furnished and setup.
Till next time,
Bob and Jo
