The 2005 Travels of Richard n Shirley

We are fulltime RV's. This means we have no other home but our motor home. We joined the Escapees RV Club and use their mail forwarding service and forum. In addition to Escapees forum, you can find us on rv.net and lrv2.com. We are Richard n Shirley on all of them. We access the internet with a Direcway satellite dish mounted on a tripod. We do set up the dish at every place we stop for the night or more. We are #2321 on datastormusers.com. Click us and you will find our current location.

We went to kmart shopping for floss which they no longer carry in their brand. We left the RV parked there and drove to Sears to look at a compressor for the tires. We tried to air the tires at Loves but there was not enough pressure. We need a compressor. We went looking for the pancake type but bought a tank type. It is rated 125 psi and comes with a hose/accessory kit. We drove back to the RV and moved down the street from the airways auto electrical repair to wait for the batteries. About noon, Roy the owner came by and had us move to his place to install the batteries. With interruptions, this took about 3.5 hrs. We have new batteries. We paid our bill and left Dodge.
We took state 412 west and off to MO we went.
We crossed the Mississippi River and was going to stay at a Wally World. But it was not yet 5pm, I kept driving and at exit 6 on I55 was this casino ahead. We took the exit and stayed at the Aztar in Caruthersville, MO for the night. We went for the buffet but that was closed so we ordered off the menu. We went down to the casino and I lost $15 and Shirley lost $1. This is a really nice place but its $20 a day. We will spend one night and leave about noon tomorrow. Oh, they have free wifi so no dish was setup!
