It was a cold morning, to say the least. I opted not to break out the 0 degree sleeping bag. I was warm enough through the night, I just woke up with cold feet and not much desire to get out of the car. I coaxed myself into it and got an early start on things.

I took some time to finalize the blog and upload things to the gallery. This was a really nice safety rest area. It had a long countertop with fixed chairs and electricity nearby. The ambiance was unique to the area. I noticed each rest area has its own theme on I-35 at least. Had it not had the option of being indoors, I don't know that I would have gotten as much work done.

I'm headed to Dallas to check out the JFK Memorial and splurged to check out The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza. I apologize in advance if I offend anybody, but history from books doesn't really light my fire, but this museum kept me interested for hours. It was an audio tour that allowed for choices and a small amount of interactivity. I took a few photos, but not as many as I might have had I not been so engrossed in the subject matter.

I tried to beat the outgoing traffic and I think I managed to have a little success. Although, I did get stuck in a few congested areas. I made it to the Oklahoma rest area while it was still light, and I was able to cook some food. Some cats in the area smelled what I was cooking and decided to join me, whether I wanted them to or not. I had made plenty of rice that was super flavorful and the four of them enjoyed a feast. I normally don't feed animals because it's a bad habit and they get too used to it, appears the people that take care of the rest area are caring for them. I found a bowl of water out for them. I'll attempt to get a little bit more work done and then call it an early night.
