Stay Smart

Hey, we're not doin' too bad! No flareups or anything. Mainly been dodging storm cells, but have been doing that quite well. Had to call Genie for a weather checkup around Evansville, IN.

Upon arrival in St. Loo this AM, Super Giant Killer declared it was the best city she'd ever been in and said she was going to call it 'Heavenly City'. She got to become a Junior Ranger with a badge. We also picked up our trip mascot. She's a stuffed rodent the girls have dubbed Myrna. She's been seen at the Arch, Abe Lincoln's Boyhood Home, and Skyline Chili in Louisville. It's about 11:30 PM in Charleston, WV. We're having a great time listening to XM Radio and singing along to old pop tunes. We're having such a great time I'm already getting depressed because 'it'll never be this great again'. No, you're right; I can never be happy.

The hardest thing is we've had to leave behind Quik Trip. They don't have them in this part of the country and we have all gotten addicted to their mind-blowing array of beverages. YHWH has concocted a 32 oz thing made of orange slush and steamed milk. We have become obsessed with Holiday Inn Express' cinnamon rolls, though.
