I think it rained most of the night and a few things dropped onto the roof with loud bangs so may have been a few hail stones. I'll have to climb up and look at the roof before we go out again. Looking at the weather map for the area online this morning showed the storm system hanging around until about noon time. After we had breakfast it lightened up so we buckled up and got out of there without the need for the rain-suit.
After one stop in Kirksville, MO for fuel we made it home a little past noon. The fuel gauge was showing low as we crossed the state line and so I planned to find a station in this area. What I didn't remember was that MoDOT had built a new, very nice, four lane divided bypass around the town and there weren't any fuel station along the way. After we made it to the last exit without a station we then turned back in toward town to get the necessary fluid.
This outing was short, only a week, but we enjoyed the complete change of pace and some real quiet time.
Our next scheduled outing begins Sept. 6 for a long journey up to the Acadia National Park in Maine. Stay tuned!
