We had breakfast at the Country Inn and Suites and were off a little after 9:20 a.m.
The traffic was not bad - though there were some trucks, but things moved.
We had our usual stops for gas and washrooms.
We took I-75 into I-64 into I-65. It was a beautiful ride - hilly and interesting.
For lunch we went to Denny's in Memphis (Kentucky) We shared a sandwich and then each had a dessert. Terry had ice cream with caramel sauce. Marilyn had a brownie sundae (OMG).
We got to the Hyatt Place near the airport in Indianapolis. We are amazed how they have changed the rooms to something that is very lacking. Used to be our favorite hotel chain.
We decided to have dinner in the lobby of the hotel. Terry had a chicken Caesar salad and Marilyn had quesadillas. We both had a glass of wine (the waiter treated us to the wine)!
We left the Hampton Inn in Stone Mountain about 9:30 after a nice breakfast.
We anticipated a 4 3/4 hour ride. We were North of Atlanta, but did hit some of their traffic, including large loads with escort vehicles.
We stopped for gas and then went to Love's to return something Terry had bought at another Love's. We also stopped at McDonalds for lunch (sorry Stacy).
We later stopped at a McDonalds for a washroom, and then a Casey's for gas. It was a good move, since traffic was tied up for about an hour (or more). We were just inching along.
We finally got to our Hotel - Country Inn and Suites in London, KY.
We decided not to go out and to have dinner of mac/cheese and raisin bagels that Terry had in the food bag.
Terry is finishing reading The Correspondent, for our family book club.
We left the hotel in Holiday Inn Express, Macon, about 10 a.m., after a nice breakfast, to go visit our cousin Jeff Glazer.
We arrived at his complex about 11:30 and parked at the Center. We had lunch with Jan Trabb, whom he knew from New Jersey and Sun City in Bluffton, SC
After a tour, we saw his apartment, and played with the dog and went to our hotel (The Hampton Inn) to rest. The hotel is disappointing in that you can sit on the couch but there is no where to put your feet. It is a two room suite, with the beds in the second room - also has a kitchen.
We went back to have dinner with Jeff and Jan, which was lovely. Jan ordered a dessert with four types of ice cream that we should have taken a photo of - indecent.
Here's a photo of the four of us taken by someone they knew before we went into dinner.
We left the house a little after 9 a.m.
As usual, we stopped to go to the washroom, and then again for gas.
It was a Cracker Barrell day - we stopped for lunch at one Cracker Barrell and had eggs.
We found our hotel, which is close to a Cracker Barrell so we had dinner there - good meatloaf dinner.
We dropped some food, including ice cream for Tom, at Diane and Tom's house.
No box this year as we are leaving everything in the linen closet at the house.
Tom is feeling much better and we went to Terra Del Sol for lunch (forgot to take a photo of them).
Originally, we thought we would eat outside, but opted for inside as it was windy outside.
Our stuff for inside the car is staged and ready to go after we get dressed in the morning.
We will watch Jeopardy and then go onto Barry Bradford Zoom to hear about John Adams.
It was a beautiful day as we drove to the beauty shop and Vanessa worked her magic. She has an individual salon within this building.
