That's all Folks!

Day 25-29 Were spent in the car driving home!  We stopped in Needles, Ca where it was 109 degrees and got Hagen Das Bars and had to eat them quickly, because they melted fast!  We stayed the night in Amarillo, and enjoyed a visit with my Uncle Gene, Aunt Sandra, and their daughter and family who I have not seen for years.  Then it was off to Missouri and then to Kentucky.  After Kentucky we could smell home.  We arrived safe and sound at 9:00PM and all the kids wanted to do was wake our good friends who live across the street and tell them all about the trip.  

We had an experience when we stopped for dinner in West Virginia, it was kind of a run down hamburger place, as we sat down to eat, this gentleman turned around and said, "My wife and I have a problem with your family!"  I was thinking what in the world, we hadn't done anything too horrific yet!  Then he goes to explain that first he saw my husband walk in with two kids, then he turned around and saw another, then turned around and saw another.  He then counted everyone to make sure more weren't turning up!  We laughed and chatted with them for awhile and you would have thought we were long lost family.  They were just a cute set of Grandparents missing little ones.  

I was truly amazed at how many nice people we met on our trip.  

Well this ends the cross country adventure!  What an amazing experience, one to last a life time!  The kids were wonderful and I love all the memories we made.  I have to admit, even though I was honestly camped out by the end of the trip, I saw a mini van at a "rest stop" stuffed full and I was wishing we were back on the road!   For all of you who joined us I hope you enjoyed the ride.
