Captain's Log: 12252012
Day began with the hustle of any other Christmas morning, but quickly turn to travel time as we embarked on our holiday adventure. 4 kids and 4 sets of headphones, made for a remarkably quiet trip. Well, except for the kid who had a stomach bug and threw up every hour or so throughout the Land Of Lincoln. Illinois brought some mysterious red lights,... and prayers for a gas station as we travelled 20 miles past our "0 miles remaining" indicator (we love you Sienna). This however, led us to Knoxville, IL which held one of the friendliest gas stations I have ever stepped foot in, amid a quaint little town filled with Christmas spirit.
Iowa was dinner with a dear old friend, a crap load of tractor trailers jack knifed and disabled along the snowy banks and a check mark on the "states we've never been to" list. We are held for the night in a "Green" hotel in Omaha,NE (another checkmark!) free of course - because that's how we roll. Until tomorrow world...
