day 2

loading up for day 2 of driving...
we drove through a lot of very colorful towns... a visual eye-feast!

then out into beautiful green countryside, where this awesome peak loomed over part of our drive... we weren't sure if it was always this green or if this was just the result of the rain from the tropical storm that blew through.
all day the sky provided these awesome cloud formations... about 5:30pm we began hunting for the night's lodging. having a 15 passenger van with a trailer attached provides some real challenges to finding a hotel for the night. most of the places don't have room to park our rig. about 8pm, finally we found a place that would accommodate us. in fact, they were in the street waving us in! after we pulled in and parked, the whole driveway behind us filled up with other trucks and cars, all towing a second vehicle. and semi-trucks. and trucks pulling truck... the next morning, they were all gone before we even rolled out of bed. we were so thankful to the Lord for this rest stop! there was even a pool we cooled off in before bed. so day 2 was safely and soundly behind us.
