Day 290 End of Road Trip Across America! : (

Exercise: Comtemplating going to spin class, but since it begins in 20 minutes I guess I'm going to miss it. Doing all the laundry right now anyway. What a lame excuse!! I'm just tired to be honest and may miss another day.

Drove from visiting my little Sis in Dallas to Houston today. Sad to see our road trip end, but loved all the new adventures and and sights we experienced. Great to visit different states, friends and family. What a great 15 days it was! Enjoyed just hanging with my Hun in the car listening to music or chatting for what seemed like forever! So much green and wide open spaces. So many 18 wheelers! People from other states were friendly and the food was good, but nothing beats TEXAS! Vince and I started singing "Deep In The Heart of Texas" when we crossed the state line. Did I mention he would sing that song by Julie Andrews...."Climb Every Mountain" every time we walked up hills in Pennsylvania? ha ha

Our trip started out on July 4th from Houston to New Orleans, Louisiana where we saw the French Quarter a bit. Headed to Biloxi, Mississippi where we stepped on the beach in Crystal Springs a bit. Stayed in Atlanta, Georgia at a friend,s house. Through South Carolina to reach our North Carolina destination...the lighthouses! Fun times at the beaches and lighthouses. Onward to Pottsville, Pennsylvania to stay with Vince's parents. On our return we ventured through Maryland and West Virginia. Stopped some in Virginia and spent most of our time in Memphis, Tennessee at Graceland, home of Elvis Presely. Had lunch and fun times in Little Rock Arkansas and spent the evening with family in Dallas, Texas for my sister's birthday. Arrived home this afternoon. Whew! Loved every moment of it and would do it again. How about the West Coast next time?

Amazing to think I go back to work on Monday. June 17 was my first official start of summer break and I don't know where the entire month went!! Time sure flies when you are having fun!

You know you are back in Texas when you see this....
Only in Texas!
