Jacksonville, IL - 12/04/17

December 4, 2017 - Monday
Jacksonville, Illinois

Time to head south for the winter! We got off to a late start due to medical appointments that had to be scheduled for late November. Fortunately, the weather was warmer than usual for this time of year. It feels good to be on the road again, traveling to new adventures!

Our first stop is Jacksonville, Illinois for a family visit before heading for warmer weather in the southeastern region of the U.S. We will spend time meandering through Texas before heading to New Orleans, Louisiana and eventually ending up in Florida for the winter.

This is “Bella's” first road trip with her new family and we are looking forward to her companionship. We adopted Bella in October 2017. She is a 14 lb., 9-year old Shih Tzu mix that has blessed our lives with so much joy. So far, she has turned out to be a great traveler. She just snuggles up in her traveling bed and naps until we stop for our rest breaks.

Tomorrow another adventure begins.
