We have offically left DC and made the drive home to Iowa safely. I must say I was a little scared, Joe driving our "semi truck." But, we did it with only one minor mishap in a hotel parking lot (Drew you are gonna love this one). After driving about 12 hours and it being 1 o'clock in the morning, we pull over to get a good nights rest before finishing our trip the next day. Well, little did we know the parking lot did not have a turn-around, and with a semi and a trailer you can't so much back up. I felt like we were in the movie Austin Powers, but only with a BIGGER car. But after much bickering and concentration, we were able to get the truck out after an hour only to go to the hotel and see that it was full and no openings. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!! We had to drive another 45 min. to spend way to much for a hotel and sleep for only 5 hours.....gotta love it.
We leave Iowa tomorrow and are heading up to Wisconson to see Joe's family. We are both excited! Except for our air conditioner in our car has broke, so 7 hours on the interstate with no air should be sweet. Joe keeps telling me I am a "trooper." He better appreciate this!
