Yesterday marked the first official day of the road trip. We left Brenham and headed north to Dallas and then hopped on I-35. The first destination is Spirit Lake, Iowa and it will take 17 hours to drive there. We made it about half way and stopped in Wichita, KS after 9 hours in the car. While passing through Oklahoma, we encountered a little bit of rain, but afterwards saw the most beautiful double rainbow!
Yesterday was a long day but glad to have gotten a large chunk out of the way. Have been listening to Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol on iTunes and it is a pretty good way to pass the time (not to mention a great story thus far). Today we'll be driving through Omaha and then to Iowa. Feels good to be on the road!
Safe travels to you! Can't wait to hear about the adventures!
