Almost Home

I was told that it was important to drive on Daytona Beach, so before we left Friday morning we turned in there. There was a booth and the attendant wanted 5 bucks, but I not only talked him out of that, I also got him to take our picture.

We then found Route 95 for our long journey north.

We found our college friends, Pat and Glenda, in Prosperity, South Carolina. We spent 2 nights with them, and had a great time catching up, and also enjoyed a wonderful cruise on the lake behind their house. It was here that we were all awoken in the middle of the night, by Tanya, to hear about the birth of Victoria's daughter, Hailey! I knew as soon as I heard the phone ring in the middle of the night that it was one of my children.

Leaving there on Sunday, we headed north again, and although it was not our intentions, our GPS decided that we should see downtown Washington, DC. It was great, as we saw the Pentagon, The Capital Building and Washington monument etc.

And then we got to drive on the beautiful Washington-Baltimore Parkway, and enjoy some nice traffic.

Tomorrow we should be home, to see if all the animals are as small as this one that Jesse sent a picture of.

But first we will try and stop and visit Victoria and Brad, and of course Hailey Lynn.
