We were up early this morning.. we had 10+ hours of driving to do in order to get back to Wisconsin at a decent hour tonight.
We didn't really stop much along the way ... before we left Memphis we saw this statue by Tom Lee Park on the Mississippi River. Click on the inscription photo to get a larger view and read about Tom Lee.
And off we drove... leaving Memphis, but agreeing we WILL BE BACK!!
I'm going to Memphis where the beat is tough
Memphis, I can't get enough
It makes you tremble and it makes you weak
It's in your blood, that Memphis Beat
~ Jerry Lee Lewis ~
Entering Arkansas on the way to Wisconsin... lots of cotton fields there!
Hmmm... McJesus??? We didn't have time to find out...
Crossing the great Mississippi...
Into Illinois...the longest and most boring part of the trip back... we saw the oil fields of IL, lots of oil rigs pumping out that black gold.
This person had the right idea... fly where ever you are going, and park it at a motel at night... *L*
We made it home by 8:30 p.m. on Monday. What a great trip!! Thanking God for the many blessings in safe travels, fun times, great weather (for the most part)- no snow like they had back here!..and for the blessing of my daughter Kasey, to share this time with!
And tomorrow, it's back to the real world... ugghhh..
