We are moving across the country. We are half way there so far. I meant to post things each night on the blog but that just didn't happen. Usually I was just too tired to get the laptop out of the case.
I'll probably go back and edit this and make it look nicer and tell more about the trip on here later when I get more chance.
The super quick highlights
Thursday
Virginia - We stayed last night in the hotel in Waynesboro and as a fluke I checked my email. Boy and I glad that I did. I won something! I'll post more about that later.
West Virginia -
Kentucky - (we stopped in Shelbyville-home of a really big Saddlebred horse show. Ironically, one of the books that I was reading takes place here. I am a fan of Rita Mae Brown and her newest book, Puss and Cahoots, takes place at the horse show. I would be able to tell you more about it but the packers packed that too) I had to make an emergency yarn purchase here after dinner. It was a lot colder than we expected and the packers had packed up Evan's hat.
Friday
Kentucky (the rest of it) I missed Churchhil Downs though. :(
Indiana -I got pictures of the Evansville signs.
Illinois-
Missouri -We got pictures of the Gateway Arch.Had a yummy lunch in St. Louis at a barbarque place called Bandana's (or something close to that) Then we stopped at Pete's for the night.
Saturday
Missouri- We left the snow behind (no one expected that!) and drove west.
Kansas- Kansas is a long state. We stopped in WaKeeny. I asked at the front dest of the hotel about dinner places and was told to try the Western Kansas Steakhouse. It was good. Just down the block from that was an F-14. Yep, an honest to goodness Navy fighter jet.
Sunday
Kansas -We are planning on getting pictures this morning of the fighter jet. I'll try to remember to post what the waitress said about why they have it later.
Colorado (we should be stopping at Jer's tonight.)
Other states that we will be passing through are (in no particular order)
Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, Washington. And there is 1 more. I counted before we left that we were going to be going through 13 states but here I only count 12. I'll find out what the next one is later.
