Travels With Dad


The Return.
Here we are in a Motel again. This time in Abilene Kansas. Dad goes nostalgic on Zane Grey settings. I was a brat most of the day. So was Dad. But we talked about interesting things some of the time.
I miss NANA & Poppa and Momma and Joey

Day 3
Finally!! We got to Nana and Pappa's house.
I was getting tired of Asking Dad to hand me stuff in the back seat. He started making excuses like " I can't do that. I have to drive." So I said " Are your big hands not strong enough to get me crackers?"
Anyway I haven't stopped laughing and playing with Nanny and Poppa since we got to Trinidad.



Day 2
We still didn't get to Nanny and Pappa's house. We had cereal a muffin and an apple for breakfast in Indiana, got gas in Illinois and I saw the arch in St Louis. 'What's that? A rainbow?' I asked Dad. I pooped on the potty in Missouri and Dad was so happy he bought me skittles and we got lunch at McDonalds. We stopped in Kansas and looked at cows and then we had a tailgate party in the Walmart parking lot for dinner. Now we are in a Motel in Dodge City.

Day 1
Dad said we're going to Colorado but now we're in a motel in Indiana. And I don't want to go to sleep but Dad does and he's doing a lot of finger snapping and telling me to lay down and now I'm yawning.
We drove through trees and mountains most of the day. How many trees are there? Enough to look like a thick green blanket as far as you can see all around. And that is just
from one highway [I-64 through VA, WV, KY].
Then we started seeing corn. Miles and miles of corn fields. Then it got dark and I told Dad my seat was tingley so he got a Motel 8 and I got a bath.

Baby girl was a good traveler. She watched multiple episodes of "Kimba the White Lion" and "TinkerBell". She asked many times where were Momma and Joey. At dinner, a table for four, she asked if these were seats for them. Each time we stopped "Is this Colorado?" - Steve
