We made it back to our home in Illinois safe and sound this early afternoon. It's cold here and it drizzled off and on most of the way from St Louis north. The roads weren't bad so no trouble there. Noticed some new entrance and exit ramps off of I-55 by the Inter model entrance. They needed to do something with the increase in truck traffic. Didn't get to good a look between the drizzle and the traffic.
Gas is $3.66 a gallon and we traveled from Sullivan, MO to Lockport, IL on one tank of gas. Which is pretty good. We did make a quick trip to Walmart to pick up individual things needed. Monday will be a trip to Sams Club or Costco or both for stockups.
For you world travelers, Dixie Truck Stop in McLean, IL is finally looking like it's old self, or better. New rest rooms looking good and clean. The store having a variety of souvenirs and snack foods.

Glad you made it back safely. Miss you two already, though. Keep in touch.
