The Open Road Song
I notice there haven't been any posts for a while, so I figured I could take a quick moment to jot down some thoughts about winter break...
I decided that a road trip was in order (cheap, easy, lots of options)!
Since 11:00 AM on December 17th, I have:
- Put over 1800 miles on the KNPSHUN Fit
- Driven through seven states
- Sang along (probably poorly) to at least 450 songs
- Become re-acquainted with my music collection which spans from the 1940's to 2009... from Aerosmith to Wesley Willis and a LOT of artists in between
- Spent the night in Decatur, Alabama, the French Quarter (New Orleans), Louisiana, Live Oaks, Florida, and Orlando, Florida
- Seen TWO white alligators!
- Seen several live bands on Bourbon Street
- Eaten beignets (Google: Cafe du Monde)
- Splashed around in the Atlantic Ocean
- Driven through the Irish Bayou
- Learned the origins of the words "Creole" and "Cajun"
- Saw the "Oldest Building" and the "Oldest Wooden Schoolhouse" in St. Augustine, Florida
- Realized how beautiful the southeastern part of the US is - the last time I was in Florida... I'm not sure if I was even in the double digits yet.
- Met SO many wonderful people that were willing to give advice and take pictures!
- And so, so much more!
I wish I could add all the pictures to this post, but unfortunately, there is only room for a few.
I hope everyone is having an excellent break, and enjoying time with family and friends!
