Bob-Kats on the Road 1-11-11

On the road at 11:00 - our rules are we don't leave before 11:00 and don't drive more than five hours.  Snowed last night and very cold. Very windy, gusty.  Bob was wrestling to keep Big Q on the road.
Saw eagle.  Merlins work the highway.  (okay, had to throw in some bird stuff).  Not a comfortable trip -- it was like riding in a Boeing with severe turbulence except there are lots of large things to hit like bridge abutments!   We are staying in Little Rock tonight.  Downtown.  ??  I dunno, Bob did the reservations, so just gonna go with it.
