The End is in Sight

We both slept hard last night but did not want to get back in the car this morning.  It was a long day in the car yesterday and it was hard to think about doing it again.  We did find out however that the Cincinnati airport really is in Kentucky!  Go figure?  We have been so lucky with the weather and it was another beautiful day.  We had another 400 miles to drive to reach Debbie's house and we wanted to get home.  The drive today went much better and was more direct but just as long.  Her GPS works off a satellite Carol so hers isn't supposed to require updates.  Yesterday was the only time we have ever had that problem with it but it was one day too many.   We stopped outside of Nashville to pick up some things for dinner as well as a birthday cake for Debbie's husband.  Today is Andy's birthday.  With the time change to central time we arrived at her house at 4:30 this afternoon and were so happy to be out of the car!  I fly back to Atlanta on Tuesday morning so have another day to visit with Debbie and her critters before heading back to reality again.  I will try to get some pictures of Debbie's critters tomorrow.

 I am looking forward to getting home and seeing the kids and grandkids.  Hey Lil P, yes you would like Chocolate World a lot and maybe we can go there someday.  They also have an amusement park called Hershey Park there like Six Flags.  I'm glad everyone enjoyed the photos as I enjoy taking them.  I used to think it was the internet everywhere we have been trying to load photos on the blog but I have figured out as has Ms. Kay that I believe that it is Blogger that has the issues.  It is very frustrating when you are tired and trying to post things and it takes what seems like forever to do it.  At least in the hotels it is free but on the ship the internet is very expensive so I need to work on finding a better way to do this before we make our next trip.  Thanks for following and I will post a synopsis and some pictures that I was unable to upload when I get home.

We thought this was funny

We gave up on going to Indiana

I wanted to sing this for Debbie but didn't know the words..

  1. Hope the third time is a charm (each attempt is shorter and shorter!)

  2. Dear T.P., I so enjoyed your photos and blog, it felt as if I was right along there with you, sharing the backseat with Gnomey. I just got back from a whirlwind, obligatory trip to Florida to visit my psuedo-niece but I didn't have anyone to take pictures of the sights along the way, such as a golf-cart pulling a horse, a spray-can artist, and vasectomy ads on billboards. I have no immediate travel plans but am now inspired to take a Foodie and Castles road-trip to PA, after reading a article on budgettravel.com about American castles. TTFN.
