Returning to Florida

We left home around 11 am to drive to Huntington. Traffic was light on the Interstate so we made good time arriving in Huntington around 1:30. We stopped at the Rt. 60 Speedway getting gas for $2.77/gallon. The Nissan Versa that we had rented was getting 42 MPG, and the car has only a 12 gallon tank.

I took the test results into HIMG and left the report for Mary Vaughn. I dropped Mary off at Gran’s to take a look at a problem with her computer, while I went to Don Jenkins' home to take the federal and state taxes that I had prepared and printed a couple of weeks ago.

We were a little early for our ushering responsibility at the Marshall Artist Series at the Keith Albee. We walked around Huntington for a while then stopped at the Gumbo Stop Cafe in Heritage Station. Mary had the pork grillade, and I went with the shrimp etouffee. We both enjoyed our meals very much.

The show at the Keith was Tedechi Trucks band, a rock and soul big band. Unlike any of the other shoes this season, this show was nearly sold out. It was good to see a well-attended performance. We watched an episode of Austin City Limits with Tedechi Trucks Band a few days ago and liked them fine. We stayed through the opening act then headed East toward Dawn's home where we spent the night. Although we would have minded staying for the show, we had a long day of driving ahead of us tomorrow.
