On our way again!

We left home around 9:30 this morning, starting our next travel adventure.  Michigan weather since Christmas has been relatively mild, but of course we got hit with some sleet once we got the camper pulled up to the house to pack for the trip.  Still, once we got off our own road (which was fairly icy), the rest of the roads have been dry and good so far.
Leaving Michigan:

We're spending tonight (hopefully ONLY tonight) in a small KOA campground just outside Louisville, Kentucky.  That was about a 7 hour drive with a couple of stops, so enough for one day.  We've been tracking road reports and weather fairly diligently the last few days, so thought we had a good window of travel opportunity lined up.  Once we arrived here, however, we found that the local news is calling a winter weather advisory, with sleet and snow predicted starting this evening and lasting until tomorrow morning, which is why I made the comment at the beginning of this paragraph that I hoped we would only be spending one night here.  Our decision to move on as planned or stay and wait for roads to clear will be totally based on road conditions and safety considerations, so no worries.  We've come in from a bit of a walk to stretch our legs after being in the car all day, we have heat, light, food and wine, so we are fine.  More tomorrow....
