June 2nd

After I woke up at the Motel 6 I made my oats and got back on the road to Fort Leavenworth in Kansas by 7 in the morning. I stopped at the first gas station I found to fill the tank back up, I only had 1.76 gallons left. The price of the gas was $23.32 for that trip. The trip will take about 5:20  hours. I stopped at Overland Park for 30 minutes to eat my lunch, a salad and a sweet potato and then got back on the road to complete the last hour to the fort. When I got to the fort it was 1pm, I got stuck in about 10 minutes of traffic on my way from the park to the fort. When I got to the fort I found a parking space and strolled into the Fort. I learned much about this attraction, including how it was used in the military. It was 3pm and it was time to get back on the road. I drove another 3 miles to the Motel 8 and spent the night in Gretna, Nebraska. I heated up my soup, ate and went to sleep. This day of driving was a total of 509 miles and 8 hours and six minutes. I have 86 miles of gas left in the tank.
