Alaska Day 28

A friend just emailed me and told me to finish the blog. To tell the truth, since I have been home, I just forgot. Well, here is the ending.

We left Snyder around 6:00 am. It was a dark, but starting to get light. The temperatures were in the 70's so we knew it was going to be a hot day.

We jumped on I-20 to Abilene, and as the sun came up we knew we were going to have fun. The storm clouds were coming in, and it was obvious that it was raining, and we were going to get wet.

We made it to Highway 36 before the rain started. We pulled over at a small store just south of Abilene and put on our rain suits.

NOTE TO BRIAN: If y'all come down 36 this store is about 7 miles south of Abilene. It's the first and only store after you pass the airport. I left my buddy buttler there. If you get a chance could you stop and see if by any chance they have it. I doubt that they will. Thanks.

We continued south/east on 36 in the rain. There was lightening, but it wasn't to bad. Dick broke off at Gatesville to head to his house, and I continued down 36. The clouds broke and that is when it really started to get hot. By the time I arrived home around 2:00 pm, it was 98 degrees and about 120% humidity. Nice to be home.

The trip was great, I'm glade I had the chance to go.

THE END
