We hit the road early Monday morning. We said “see you soon” to all of our wonderful animals, family, and friends. Lucy(our golden doodle) was able to make the cut, but we had to leave all the others at home. We know that the person living in our home will spoil our animals. So thankful for that piece to come together.
We arrived at my parents house in Illinois(about 4.5 hours away from our home) on Monday afternoon to break up the drive. We have aimed to not drive so many long hours at a time. On our last trip out west, Eric drove straight through some areas and drove nonstop for 14 hours. We knew we didn’t want to EVER do that again.
Having an RV where we easily move around, use restrooms, and cook has made life a bit better on the road for all of us. With 6 of us, this is huge. We’ve found that when Eric needs to take a break, we pull in to a quick rest area. Luckily, my parents are on the way. What a blessing it was to visit and spend the night.
My parents spoiled all of us and made some great home cooked meals before we hit the road again. Thanks, mom and dad. 🙂
These two had to run three miles before we hit the road.
Yep, I made matching shirts for our BIG stops. Grandma and Grandpa’s house is a BIG stop. Peace out OHIO….we will touch base in Oklahoma.
