To the car

I've spent a lot of time in the car over the past couple weeks. And I have enjoyed all of it! I'm not sure of my poor tush thinks so but I would do it all again in a heart beat!

18 hrs to Florida and 18 hrs back.
In addition 3 hrs to Key West and 3 hrs back 

16 hrs to South Carolina and 16 hrs back.

 2 hrs home from the airport.

 2 hrs to pick up grandma. 

1 1/2 hrs to the wedding and 1 hr back from the wedding.

 2 hrs to drop Grandma off and 2hrs back on the ride home.

Okay now that I write it all down it doesn't look like that much but it sure felt like a lot. On all those rides I had great company, Grandma Althouse, Dianne, Kristin, my Dad, and Amanda's mom. But there was two people who I spent the most time with during those car rides, Amanda and my Mom; I loved being stuck in the car with them! Amanda sure knew how to have fun we would be singing to the radio at the top of our lungs or attempting to have a serious conversation but we would end up laughing before we got anywhere with it. We'd always be snacking on something or drinking Yoohoos or the best was when I turned on her seat warmer without her knowing! It was so much fun to be with her, just able to goof around and she would goof back with me. My mom, on the other hand, I was not sticking my head out of the window with or singing a song in some strange accent but I still enjoyed all the time I got with her in the car. I had some good chats with her that I won't soon forget. I did, however, forget I missed her and how much she loves me. I really did take that for granted and those car rides were a wonderful reminder! Well I think I'm done with road trips for a while but I can't wait to see what my next one will be.
