Grammy Leigh and Hippity Hop's Summer Adventure - Part Three

Leaving Nebraska this morning about 7:00 am it is clear and warm-ish. Grammy, Hop and Brother Dave took a short side trip into Colorado for a bit of shopping. Though our shopping trip didn't turn out as we had hoped, lunch at the local sub sandwich shop almost made up for the lack of shopping victories. Now back on the highway and headed for Shelbyville, TN. Our trio should arrive at Grammy's relatives just before sundown tonight. This leg of the trip is relatively uneventful, so we break for a couple of hours in St. Joseph MO. for a nap, then go on to St Louis, MO.

Buchannan County Courthouse, St. Joseph, MO.

Sorry for the long delay in recounting this tail, but Grammy's journal got lost under the sofa somehow. Now on with the story.

Rested and excited to get to our first family destination, we re-enter the highway and head toward St. Louis, MO. As we get close to the heart of the town, the St. Louis Arch comes into view.

From St. Louis we get on Interstate 64 and follow it to Evansville Indiana. There isn't much to look at along the road, so Grammy reads a book while Bro. Dave drives and Hop naps in his carrier.

From Evansville, Dave turns south and follows Interstate 69 through farmlands and road construction zones until it brings us to US-41 South in Scott Township. At Scott Township we take Interstate 24 into Clarksville, TN.  From Clarksville, he continues on I-24 to Murfreesboro, TN. In Murfreesboro, we take US-231 into Shelbyville, TN where they navigate the 'city streets' to Oak Street and Dave and Grammy's mother and brother's house.

Grammy Leigh's Mom and Bro. Kenn's House

After unloading the Haul-Me-Home truck, Grammy's Sister, Jerri, arrived to take Grammy and Hop Hop to her home at 203 A Buffalo Valley Drive in Shelbyville. On the way, the ladies pull through an Arby's to pick up sandwiches for their dinner. 

Sis. Jerri's apt. is just behind the car. 

Sis. Jerri lives in a nice little tri-plex across town from Grammy Leigh's Mom and Bro. Kenn. Brother Dave will stay with Mom and Bro. Kenn long enough to repair his little truck that they have towed behind the Haul-Me-Home truck. Then he will be off to stay with some friends in Maryland. Hope to see you real soon, Bro Dave.

Jerri lives in a quiet community set up for seniors and disabled persons with small incomes. The area is so lush and growing, with all kinds of wildlife teaming in the nearby trees. Did you see that deer walk by? 

No?

I am so sorry you missed him!

After eating their fast-food dinner, these sisters relax in front of the TV watching classic movies on TV. So we will bid them and Hop Hop good night. See you all again real soon
