Left the Newell factory in Miami around 8:30am and started our trek south to Bullard, TX (just south of Tyler) for the family wedding this Saturday. Got back on I-44 down to Big Cabin, OK where we left the Interstate for HWY 271 which we followed all the way to Tyler. We had around 400 miles to drive and knew his would be a long day without Interstates to bypass the local towns, but we enjoyed the change, even if it did take us 9 hours of driving....er, I should say it took me 9 hours of driving while Elaine kept me plied with snacks, fruit, soft drinks, etc. I got off the highway in McAllister to take a break and check the oil and spied a Supercuts, which is my "hair salon" of choice. So, I walked over and got the haircut I should have before I left Ontario. Got back to the Newell and drained 3 quarts of 40wt into the 6V92 and got back on our way. We also stopped at a Wallmart for about an hour earlier in the day (just off the highway) and did some bill paying while Elaine took care of a conference call she had scheduled. Arrived in Bullard around 7pm.

Here are some pictures of our temporary "home" for the next 4 days
