It is now 11:29AM an d we are FINALLY on the road. First stop of the day is Bryce's Grandmother's house for lunch. We are a little behind schedule due to the fact that I had some trouble awakening from my deep slumber. To my credit though, Bryce was awake and didn't even bother coming and telling me to get up. So I feel as if we are both at fault here.
After Grandma Joyce's, we will be heading to Prairie Meadows Racetrack and Casino in Altoona, Iowa to try our luck there. Hopefully we can do a little better than yesterday and win some gas money.
A special shout out to Eric and Alison Swanson (Bryce's Uncle and Aunt) for their exceptional hospitality. The food was delicious and we thank them very much for welcoming us into home. Their house was amazing and the scenery was lovely. Even got to see a few packs of deer in the backyard.
One thing we have noticed in our travels is that there is a lot of trash on the side of the roads. A LOT more than in Illinois. Probably because we have a lot of former governors cleaning it up.
That is all for this hour. Stay tuned for more updates.
