(believe it or not, there’s still almost half of this trip left to write about – time to get a’moving if we want to be done before Christmas!)
Take Me Home, Country Roads
So back on the road with sweet cream in our rearview mirror, we made our way down through New England towards Sara’s parents’ house in New York. Thankfully, the country roads proved to be much more friendly to traverse during the daylight hours … plus, we found the freeway and basically just took that the entire way … so we finally got the opportunity to just sit back, take in the mountain scenery that we’re severely lacking down south, and get completely engulfed in the odd book that Sara had picked out for us to listen to during the drive…
Funny Road Signs, Part Deux
Of course, once we got into some of the more populated areas, it became clear that the phenomenon of goofy road signs is most certainly not limited to the I-75 North-South corridor…
Home is Where There’s Cake Waiting for You
With traveling taking up the remainder of our day after our magical ice cream tour, we didn’t end up pulling into our destination until that evening, but as one might expect when they live far away to only see family once or twice a year, Sara’s parents (and her brother) seemed pretty excited to see us nonetheless.
I, on the other hand, was pretty excited to see this…
If I had known that traveling around the country could score me multiple birthday cakes for my big day, I’d have hit the road a long time ago!
