16 days on the road, maybe they are starting to feel the love for each other? Shadow the cat and Banjo the dog enjoying the early morning sun in the confines of our van this morning.
This picture is the beautiful scenery of Wheeling, West Virginia. Today we drove mainly through Indiana and Illinois. Tomorrow most of the day will be the drive through Pennsylvania. We'll be in New Jersey tomorrow night. We are all excited to have the 5,000 mile trip over with. We will still have lots of time spent in the car as we will start the house hunting search. We may spend the weekend doing area familiarization and paper buying for rental listing in the classifieds. My manly man will be checking in with his people to get the paperwork started for housing allowance and other things.
We had dinner tonight at Cracker Barrel. I love those restaurants. I love the little stores they have and the curious items you find there. For dinner I had country fried chicken with mashed potatoes, gravy, baked apples, turnip greens, corn bread muffin and ice tea.
Saw this little sign on the way to eat that we investigated on the way back to the hotel. Some beautiful country roads led us to a couple little lakes stocked with geese, duck and fish. We did see bluegill swimming around in there. In this picture are the geese.
I'll try to make a quick post tomorrow evening to let you all know we arrived. Thank you for praying for us this trip. We have been abundantly blesssed with safety along the way. I am thankful for all my prayer warriors who have been praying for us. Keep it up as we search for my barbie doll house!
Gary ALWAYS gets the greens when we eat at a Cracker Barrel!His brother-in-law manages one in Oklahoma City. We enjoy playing checkers with the large checker sets while we wait to be called for our table. A great redneck dining experience. We all enjoy the fried catfish and okra too. Good luck with the house hunting; we feel God has something special planned for you.
