Road Trip, Part Deux – Day #6

AND WERE OFFICIALLY BACK! Today it rained. All. Day. Long. Need­less to say, walk­ing around Her­shey Park was ruled out, but we did drive by it and got to see the fun Her­shey Kisses street lamps and the amuse­ment park. Also, Milo expe­ri­enced snow for the first time in his life: He’s not thrilled about it, but […]

Road Trip, Part Deux – Day #5

We blew through four states today — Vir­ginia, West Vir­ginia, Mary­land, and landed in Her­shey, Penn­syl­va­nia. And we found a Pan­era Bread! I can’t believe how much I missed Panera’s! Again, the ride was rel­a­tively unevent­ful — there was a ton of rain (through all four states, no less). The pup­pies were very good (and sleepy) […]

Road Trip, Part Deux – Day #4

We are finally back in EST and past the halfway mark on our trip. Only two more days and we’ll be back in NH. It’s nice to stay in a place where there’s more to the town than the local Waf­fle House And Star­bucks are get­ting eas­ier to find. Thank God. Today, we left the highway […]

Road Trip, Part Deux – Day #3

Today we reached Jack­son, Ten­nessee via Mem­phis. Once again, not the most excit­ing des­ti­na­tion. Next time we take a road trip, hubby will not get to plan our route… This was the most excit­ing sight on the route In other news, my car was found! In a park­ing lot. By the dinky Nashua Air­port. With a dead […]

Road Trip, Part Deux – Day #2 (or Dude, Where’s My Car?)

The drive to Shawnee, Okla­homa was rel­a­tively unevent­ful. Milo and Toot­sie were being cute, of course, and fell asleep in awk­ward posi­tions like this: But oth­er­wise, noth­ing par­tic­u­larly excit­ing hap­pened. Until we checked into the hotel and Jason got a voice­mail from the com­pany ship­ping my car to NH. They beat us to NH by sev­eral days […]
