We were pleased that a few crocus were open to great us when we arrived home late yesterday, instead of snowbanks!The first snow we saw was in a road ditch near Iola, KS—home of Bob and Joanne. the last (and most) we saw was along I-80 just east of Des Moines.
We went from Rockport 35 RV Park to Fredericksburg, where we stayed at the Lady Bird Johnson Municipal Park for $25/night with WES, subscription WiFi. This park is adjacent to the Fredericksburg airport, so we felt right at home!
Our plan was to leave there Tuesday morning, but the 24-hour flu or equivalent attacked Pat, so we stayed one more day and left Wednesday morning. That night, we stayed at the RV park at the Gainsville Outlet Mall, which is on I-35 north of Dallas. That is a great place to stay as it is both convenient and inexpensive: $15/night, WES, no WiFi!
Thursday we went to Chanute, KS, home of the Nu-Wa factory. They make HitchHiker trailers. I picked up a few parts at the factory and talked with a few of the people I'd wanted to meet for a long time.

Chanute has a convenient City Park for RVs. The first two night are FREE and $10/night after that, with WE. There's WiFi at the library.
Friday was the longest leg, 450 miles from Chanute to Cedar Rapids. Everything was fine when we arrived. The mail had been delivered, the basement was dry, the furnace was running, etc., etc.
Today we unloaded the trailer (mostly) and properly parked it.
We're tired!
