ReplyDeleteI love really long road trips (as long as I don't drive, panic attacks+car= bad idea) I hope you didn't drive the whole way. But it sounds like you had a good time, and yes I would like a Bugle.
ReplyDeleteMmmmm, Bugles. But 12 hours in the car sounds like hell. I guess you don't have a 9 month old to the whole time, though.
ReplyDeleteThis shall be me next weekend on our trip to Hilton Head. Thankfully we're splitting our trip and stopping at a friend's house in WV. And we're listening to Harry Potter on the way, which makes the trip go by MUCH faster!
ReplyDeleteEw, bugles. I guess the days of car games are gone, aren't they.
