Road trip VII - Liberty to Austin
Well we left Liberty, Indiana at 4:35 AM on our return trip. It was still dark out. We carefully threaded our way through Liberty watching our speed. On the way out of town as I sped up to 40 MPH all of a sudden a cop turned on his lights and pulled us over. It was a young guy. He said that we had been doing 42 in a 30 MPH area just prior to the 40 MPH sign which was in sight. Sheesh! To make a long story short he let us go with a warning. Maybe it was because we said that we had just left our relatives home. I don't know. But from then on I was worried that some other town constable was going to get us. Once I was on the interstate highway I relaxed a bit. To break it up we first drove to Clarksville, Tennessee to Homespun Corner, a wonderful cross stitch store, where Kathy spent some time and some money. Then it was on the road again. This time we drove straight through and arrived back to a very hot house at 1 AM. The road trip was over.
