last driving leg

On Tuesday, May 31, we drove out of Sand Springs, OK. We saw the cooling towers and plume of a nuclear reactor between Tulsa and Memphis, and then drove across the Mississippi - to those of us from the West Coast, that's a BIG river on a normal day, especially so due to the current flood conditions.

For the Californians, again - check out these Memphis, TN area gas prices!!

We passed briefly through Tennessee and Mississippi, then crossed Alabama. There was some awful tornado devastation on both sides of the highway at the edge of Birmingham, AL - here is an example of just one house out of a path about an eighth of a mile wide:

Finally, after about 13 hours on the road, we reached Atlanta!
