March 6, 2015 ~ Dyersburg, TN to Sikeston, MO
I was ready to hit the road again...which I did late morning. While still very cold, the sun made all the difference and with no precip in the forecast and a slowly warming trend, life was good. I crossed the river again and was back in Missouri. I laughed when I stopped at the Welcome Center and had to gingerly navigate snow and ice just to get into the building.
Since I hadn't left Dyersburg until noon and the lesser roads were still iffy, I opted to stay in Sikeston where I worked several hours in a room with a view over farm fields, my favorite motel view. Seriously.

And seriously, who would imagine a town in Missouri is named after.....
