Vacation

Well, we tricked the girls last night and started our vacation after Grammy's birthday dinner. We were about an hour and a half past our exit before anyone noticed that we passed our house. It worked out well we were able to drive for about 3 hours and stopped about 11 p.m.

Today has been very interesting. The Courtyard Marriott we stayed in was typical, no problems. We stopped for gas and Starbucks in Tifton. At the Starbucks Claire kept pulling on my skirt/shirt as young children often do. (Especially Claire). I kept turning around and asking her to stop pulling on me, leave my shirt alone, your stretching my clothes out, etc. Finally, she stopped and scooted up beside me to whisper "Mom, your skirt is tucked into your pants."

Later in the day we stopped for lunch at the scarriest Subway in Georgia (Warner Robbins in case you want to know where not to stop). It was under construction and apparently doubled as a daycare. No, I'm not kidding. The kids (all under 4) were behind the counter and climbing under the cabinets in the refrigerators, etc.

Later in the day we made one more stop for gas and potty, in Rome, Georgia. Interesting little place. There were instructions on the wall to guide you in reaching inside the back of the toilet and flushing manually.

Finally, we reached our destination. Whew! Catfish and B-B-Que for all at Buck's BBQ and Catfish with our dear friends.
