Road trip!

Miles to go before I sleep!

Movies always make cross country road trips look like an exciting adventure-full of group sing-alongs, I spy games, fun stop at cool sites like “the big ball of twine” and “the world’s biggest fry pan”.  Other than a college cross country trip to California with my buddy Cola, most of my road trips have simply been a way to get there.  Not a lot of adventure. We tick off the time, by juggling CD’s, rationing snacks, and focusing on how many hours until the next meal stop. Occasionally we have tried a book on tape but that hasn’t always worked out for us. I fall asleep or get distracted and then want to rewind. No fun for Lou. Luckily I have a husband who needs lots of bathroom stops so there are frequent opportunities to stretch. While there is definitely more space in the car than in an airplane seat, the space gets exponentially smaller as the hours pass. Luckily I have no problem reading in the car so finding that book that will keep me riveted helps. On the plus side, I don’t have to worry about luggage! I can bring all the shoes that fit in the car!!!🚗😍❤

So that leaves me wondering what to blog about while we drive. For some reason, I don’t think anyone will read us if I report: 8:00-finished the grapes, looking forward to the almonds at 9:00. Thinking, thinking of a topic that will keep me busy, (let’s be honest, it is the main reason why I do this) and that maybe a few people might read. Hmm…I’ll give it some thought. As always, I will post pics so if you want to skip the text and look at the pic, how would I know?

Hopefully I’ll come up with something entertaining.  See you on the road!!
