…and back again.
books, Council for Better Driving, everyday glory, food for thought, health, kids, movies and TV, space, travel, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot...?! April 17th, 2012Day One of the work week. It started off rainy, but skies have cleared a bit.
TeamDiVa’s first road trip was a success. The basic breakdowns were:
- Five days.
- Four states.
- Three hotel rooms.
- Two little ladies who traveled incredibly well, all things considered.
- One honest-to-goodness zebra.
It would be something of an understatement to say we’re “a little” tired. That was a lot of driving. But, it was a good trip. And, I wasn’t kidding about the zebra:
“Sure, there’s a zebra and some llama, Daddy… but there are cars and trucks right over there!”
There’s a petting zoo at the Flying J Truck Stop in Scipio, UT. We’d heard – and forgotten – about it, since we don’t go through there much anymore. But, we needed to stop so that the girls could have lunch. Thus, zebra.
And, while I don’t say this very often: I’d like to commend UDoT for the five (5) 80 MPH zones between Provo and the Arizona state line. They made a few of the long, boring stretches much more tolerable.
