We got out of Oklahoma City this morning right after a thunderstorm went through and we ended up following it to Tulsa. There was a substantial hail storm along the highway but we came along after it was over....we just saw the piles of hail laying in small drifts along the roadside.
It rained or threatened to rain the entire day. We stopped in Springfield for a late lunch and then headed north through Buffalo and Lake Ozark. We finally got home around 5:30.
We met Jill for super at Ria's and then came back and relaxed for the night. It was a rough couple of days trying to cover the distance and keep track of the weather. If the storm had arrived a day earlier we would probably still be stuck in Amarillo...most of the highways we were on are closed now due to the blizzard.
It looks like the snow will finally catch up with us. They are saying we will get heavy snow here tomorrow and then be back in the 50s on Sunday. I will get Paul on the St. Louis-bound Amtrak tomorrow morning so he should be home before anything goes too crazy.
As you can tell, we had a really good trip together and had a good time doing and seeing lots of stuff.
