The fishing wasn’t really disappointing. To be disappointing we would have had to do more actual, well, fishing. We did get out in the bay on Wednesday afternoon for a bit and Thursday morning just a couple miles out of Pensacola bay. Bad weather and a broken motor killed the rest of the planned days.
What did not disappoint was the time I got to spend with Uncle Bob and BroMike. Good times and great conversations!!!!
Every time Mike and I visit a Ford dealership, he ends up buying a new truck.
I do however think they should consider outlawing road side flea markets. They are dangerous to a schedule. Every time we drove by one Mike got as excited as a dog hearing a doorbell. He does enjoy him a good flea market or antique store. We stopped at two. 😳 He did get a cool tractor seat, so there is that.
Should get to St Louis today barring random antique stops and then two more days driving to Oro Valley.
We should not have any mechanical issues in Mike’s new fangled 2017 Ford! I love that the rear seats stow and the floor storage goes flat so I can store the Engle front to back. More room for humans and dogs. So many other safety features ( thus begins my personal spousal marketing campaign). 
This allows for the fridge to be accessible by rear passenger or well trained dog. Will have to see if I can make this work in my 2012 F250 Super Duty. It is now 5 years older than Mikes truck. (Less convincing argument tho huh).
The 2017 F250 does also support Apple Car Play and Android Auto which is a safety feature! Seriously. Smartphones still provide better route guidance IMO than built in GPS and don’t need costly map updates. Plus you can talk to Siri or Google (google needs a better name).
Finally, when will we be able to tell our car to automatically set the cruise control based on the current speed limit? That would be nice. A feature to add or remove a few miles per hour would be a bonus. “Hey Siri, set the cruise control to 5 over the limit.” Apple could then program in some witty responses.
St. Louis tonight then 24 more hours of driving to get HOME.
