Before we could leave our Hutchinson campsite we had issues with changing the fridge over to propane. After many attempts we finally called the place where we bought it and it was a simple little turn of a nut and we had propane to the fridge. The tear down was finally done in sunshine. Guess the sun was happy to see us leave.
The roads and traffic were good until we hit Iowa. From there to here in Kansas we found that their highway crews has no idea how to transition from road to bridge or bridge to road. The poor truck and trailer were in a constant battle with every bridge and road transition. So I sent a huge Kudos to the Minnesota road construction crews. Go to the southern states and show them how things should be done!!!
We spent our first night in Dows Iowa at a BP truck stop. The people there were so very nice and friendly. The highlight of that stop was that they had a Godfathers pizza spot there. So we had our first Godfathers pizza in years!!!!! OMG, we inhaled, or at least I inhaled the wonderful pizza. We asked if we could park in the back. The attendant was happy to offer any assistance and even showed us the lounge, laundry, and all their amenities of the truck stop. WOW, amazing kindness. So we back into a spot and hunkered down for the night.
I forgot to mention a little cafe that we stopped at for lunch. It was called Dinky Cafe and it was that, very dinky, aka tiny. The board of health would have had a field day. The prices were very reasonable but I doubt we will ever go there again. Now we just laugh about the place. ;)
