C&C Retirement Adventures, Day 2, Tuesday, January 11, 2011

C&C Retirement Adventures, Day 2, Tuesday, January 11, 2011

On the road again—at 9 a.m. (for those of you familiar with Corky’s penchant for starting a road trip at the crack of dawn, this time may surprise you—but as I remind him—he’s retired!! ) We motored on down the road planning to make a lunch stop in Omaha so we could meet up with neighbor Nancy and her sister Jane and husband Charlie.  Snowplows had not cleared secondary roads, so we made arrangements (after getting rather lost in an industrial park) to meet at a Walmart.  While meandering the industrial park’s streets, we used brakes a lot—I did not realize Omaha had such a rolling terrain.  Dashboard alerts reminded us that our front brakes needed air.  Made mental note to have that checked out at service time.

Met up with Nancy, Jane & Charlie; had lunch at “Jimmy Johns” and took off.  The end of driving day found us near Topeka, Kansas at the Prairie Land Casino (no gambling, just walked through casino, bought a couple of sandwiches, returned to RV, watched some TV and to bed!)   It’s very cold.
