Trip Diary

02.04.1997: Day 1: Left at 5 am. Kids asleep. By 7 am kids awake and asking "are we there yet". We were not.

03.21.1997: Day 2: The World's Second Largest Ball of Twine. The man in the gift shop was very proud.

05.22.1997: Day 3: Mountains! Dad got us lost on a "shortcut". We saw a moose. Worth it.

07.06.1997: Day 4: Motel pool. The kids say this was the best part of the whole trip. $1,800 for a motel pool.

09.14.1997: Day 6: Flat tire in the desert. Dad changed it in 104 degrees. He is still talking about it.

12.18.1997: Day 7: The beach! Sunburns all around.

01.06.1998: Day 8: Drove home. 14 hours. Played the license plate game. Found 41 states.
