On The Road

Yesterday we left our house about 6:00 in the morning. We are headed to Mississippi to see Jay's family. But on the way we will spend two days with Amy and Matt's family in Nebraska.
Traveling has gone pretty well. Mima had a little bit of car sickness yesterday. I couldn't figure out how to take her car seat apart for cleaning before, but after she got sick it became very necessary. Jay figured it out for me.
Yesterday we ate breakfast at a little restaurant in Montana. It was terribly dated, but clean as a whistle. I liked it. It is probably the only one left of its kind! When the owner/waitress left the bill it was signed "Lilly". Could her name have been anything else?

Two days later: Amy and I spent a relaxing chaotic day with each other and our kids. We went to the thrift store, ate cookies and drank coffee, and stayed up til 1 o'clock settling the world's affairs.
Today we are off to the zoo.
Following are some pictures of the icy roads and scenery we went through .

I can't forget about the tumbleweed. When we stopped for lunch at a Subway they're were a few tumbleweeds frolicking on the sidewalk. The girls were intrigued with them so we watched them and talked about them for a bit before going inside. When we sat at our table there was one of the tumbleweeds right outside of out window. It seemed to have followed us....... And posed nicely for a picture.
