Long drive to a baseball game

We were wakened by the telephone alarm. Stephen had come to sleep in the motor home with us, so he and Evelyn began assembling the remaining items for us to take with us. I went in to shower and dress. We had decided to leave without eating breakfast and were gone by 8:30. We filled our tank with cheaper gas and left for the trip home. We were surprised that gas was so cheap in Ohio. We drove through Cincinnati and to Richmond, KY where we stopped at a Waffle House for a waffle breakfast. We drove on without any problems with our sights set on Corbin, KY, home of KFC. I like to call it the “Shrine” because Evelyn loves the stuff so much. Unfortunately, we were just a few minutes after a bus full of people with the same idea. We decided there were too many in front of us so we drove on. We found a Hardees that has chicken tenders just in KY and ate there. We usually share a meal and did both times today. We drove on to Knoxville and stopped at the Russell Stover outlet again. We have a favorite Shell station across the road from there and try to make 2 stops in 1. We proceeded and called Phil to tell him we would be home a little before 5 and would like to have him drive to the ball game so we wouldn’t have to unload the car. He and Joann were right at our house to get us at 5. We left there and drove to Asheville to a hoagy restaurant for supper. We had BOGOF coupons and enjoyed our supper. We ate half of ours and brought the other half home. We went to the ball park and settled in for a good game that the Tourists won. We had stopped at a Meijer grocery on the way home and bought some bulk roasted in the shell peanuts we had hoped to enjoy. They were stale and we stopped eating them. We were home by 10:30 but were awake at 11. We had been blessed with a long day.
