Florida Trip 2013

Hi,  We left Wausau on Dec. 4th amid a 4 inch snowfall. After blowing out the driveway we left home and headed toward Cahokia, IL near St. Louis. We encountered snow, rain and wind that first 500 miles. However when we arrived in Cahokia the temperature was 67 degrees. We awoke the next morning to 28 degrees and freezing rain. The first 2 hours driving through St. Louis were interesting to say the least. We had 100 percent iced roads. We took it easy and eventually drove out of it. We then proceeded to drive to Canton, Mississippi to escape the snow and ice of an impending storm. We drove another 500 miles to get here. It was in the 50's but dropping today (Dec. 6th) . We are heading toward the coast to find warmer weather.
