We have finally reached departure date and it couldn't have gotten here any faster. We are all packed up and if you saw what we were taking you would not think we were planning on riding all the way to Texas. Judah was talking to some friends early and mentioned we would not be back home until late July. That is awesome, cause that is a long time from now. You live in Lexington for a certain amount of time and a nice long break from the county sounds real appealing. Obviously, we had to tie up a few loose ends today, like selling my kayak, going to Coinstar, and saying goodbye to Ms. Karen Lou (my other Mawma).
Well this morning I was woken up by a phone call from the dentist office reminding me I had an appointment tomorrow at 8am. I had totally forgot, but at least my teeth will be clean and I will be styling and profiling for the trip. Watch out ladies, two incredibly handsome men with clean teeth will be coming to a southern city near you. We ended our day with a nice little dinner at the Ruby Tuesday's with our folks.
Anyway, the journey starts tomorrow as soon a Judah can bust out of that high school. We are headed to Roanoke which should be about 50 miles, not a bad first day. Luckily we did not leave today, because about the time we should have hit Troutville they got smacked by a tornado. Tornado's in Virginia, really? Anyway, it looks like rain, so it should be a nice way to start the trip. Signing off from the lunatic fringe, only 1700 miles to go.
Up the road,
Steve
I promise I will get ole JB to add an entry tomorrow.
