Day 10 - Monday, June 9, 2008

Day 10

Shreveport, Louisianna to Dallas, Texas

We drove from Marshall to Shreveport to see what the status was on our car. Matt and the good folks at Moore's Goodyear had been good to us, so we stopped at Southern Maid donuts again and got them some donuts. (Of course, we also got some for ourselves, too!)

They weren't sure if they could get the part today -- so we just had to play it by hear. We had lunch in a Mexican restaurant and then went to the Sci-Port, a fabulous interactive science museum for children that the little human and I just loved.

Late in the date we got the good news that our car had been fixed and we could head out on our way.

We left Shreveport around 6PM and went west on I-20 toward Dallas. We got to the outskirts of Dallas around 9PM and stopped in Balch Springs.

Finally, we're back on track for the Grand Canyon!

Dear Jackie,
Tell the archaeologist to mind those bruises and ribs. A bit of rest is in order.

Hi Shrink!
Thanks for your well wishes. The archaelogist seems to be healing pretty well. She says that the best thing about breaking your ribs is having a medical reason for not wearing a bra! Bears don't wear bras, so I can neither confirm nor deny the veracity of this comment.
Cheers,
Jackie
