So much for leaving the cold behind! Day 2 (Memphis) found us in a hotel...again. We have always felt it was warm enough to de-winterize and camp by our second day on the road. The polar vortex has dipped to the deep south. Plans were to leave Memphis and head west...until we checked the weather and saw the huge storm we would be driving into. So, we headed straight south and have landed in New Orleans where it is predicted to be cold but not the ice and snow that was predicted for Texas. We will stay here for a couple of days until the storm has headed north and reasonable temps return.
Kismet has proven to be a great traveler. She wasn't eating though, but that has improved after a round of "kitty dialysis " which I did yesterday. She's eating and drinking today, yay!

Kismet happily asleep on the hotel bed.
