Got up early to leave Dallas before morning traffic. I-20 to West Monroe,LA and Duck Dynasty. Even at 5:30 AM 4 lanes were busy but moving along. I'm so glad Mike is driving but it's really a team effort as I'm the navigator. Favorite apps google maps, trip advisor, RV Parky ( that Chris found) and Gas Buddy. Diesel has been $2.49 in Dallas to $2.59 in Vadalia, LA, Valentine,NE and Dodge,City, KS. We go 500 miles between fillups.
Stopped at Duck Commander in West Monroe, LA. The Robinsons-Phil, Si, Willy & Jase, etc. were in Las Vegas to visit with some body armor folks who wanted to use their logo. I saw Miss Kate would be in San Antonio this weekend.
I went shopping for duck calls and T-shirts at the gift shop. More inspiring was witnessing the 3 disabled vets in wheel chairs shopping there thanking an Air Force flight crew in uniform from Pensacola also in the gift shop. The guys in uniform returned thanks to the vets for their service and shook hands. One paraplegic then got in his vehicle. The other two were helped by guys in the pickup with a trailer for their wheelchairs. The Robinsons would have loved it.
Mike and Shopcat explored around the side of the warehouse. He must have showed on security cameras so Terry, the manager checked in and they visited about cats, etc. The warehouse dock area ( seen on TV) has to have a yellow Steel railing between shoes according to OSHA. Mike has his business card and offer to call him anytime.
