We got back on the road this morning about 7:00 AM, after a nice breakfast at the Holiday Inn. The weather was a little overcast but no rain. There was not much traffic, so were able to average 78 mph. For lunch we stopped at Cooper’s Barbeque. What a wonderful place. The first things you see upon entering are huge piles of pork ribs and thick chops, sausage and beef briskets. Sandy had the beef brisket sandwich; I had a pork chop and a small piece of sausage. The food was fantastic … only wish I had room for more. This is one place we must stop on the way home.
We arrived at our second stop about 5:30 PM Phoenix time. This time we are on the second floor and it’s much quieter. No internet tonight. The Verizon card can’t find a signal. Last night the signal was great. Tonight nothing; the phone service is also minimal. The service should be good tomorrow as we will be in Florida where Verizon coverage blankets the state. If possible I will try using the card while Sandy is driving.
We finished Alen Aldan’s audio book today. A great book once stated you don’t want to stop. Our second audio book is the Children of Men by P.D. James. So far it’s a little difficult to follow as the reader speaks with a heavy British accent.
