So close…
I went to AAA today and got a Trip Tik and some maps for the trip. I’m in the middle of figuring out how much it’s going to cost us in tolls and gas, and where we should stop for fillups and to eat. Brian and I plan to take food along with us so we’re not paying more money to eat, but we still need to know where the rest stops are so we can stop there instead of being tempted by road-side diners!
I’m extremely excited about the move…in two days Brian flies in and I get to finally see those blue eyes look at me that way he does again. In person, not via webcam! :love: And in four days I leave the “land of corn and beans” as Robert calls it for good! Although I’ll be back the end of next month to visit HotJohnScott for a couple days before the Army ships him off to Iraq.
I’m sleepy! But I needed to take a break from map staring to post this little update…now back to figuring out where the most cost-efficient stops are. :grrr:
Leaving the land of corn and beans for the land of… Baked beans?
Mmm…baked beans.
