Left Memphis this morning in 40 degree weather and pouring rain on Interstate 40.  And I do mean pouring--couldn't see the road ahead of us a couple times!!  Arrived in Midwest City this afternoon with blue skies and 62 degree temperatures. 

The trip was good and we stopped about 30 miles from our destination to have a late lunch, early dinner at Cracker Barrel, our new favorite place!  We ate at one for the first time in Williamsburg, Virginia after seeing many, many of them on the road.  We enjoyed it so much we went back again the next night.  I think we have one or two more shots at them before we return to California, so I'm sure we'll stop again.

Midwest City is the home of Tinker Air Force Base and on our way in, I was able to get a picture of the Airborne Warning And Control System plan on it's final approach to the air base.  Not the best picture, but quite a sight!  No plans for tonight but resting and a workout for me in the workout room.  A long day tomorrow-553 miles to Santa Fe, New Mexico.
