OK, so, I suck at blogging. the problem is, I lost my cord to my computer so I can't download pictures! I ordered a new one from amazon, so hopefully I"ll have that problem fixed soon. Anyway, here's an update on our family. Jason had to leave for Georgia for some officer training school so I drove down with him and flew home. That was a very scary trip. Here are a few details. We decided to go through Soda Springs and over thru Wyoming. Bad idea. Construction everywhere and it took us forever just to get to Cheyenne, where we decided to sleep that night. The second day, we drove thru the state of Nebraska. Boring. Except we stopped in North Platte to get some grub and witnessed a very terrible accident at the intersection in front of us. Jason of course being a nurse, was the first to check and make sure both victims were OK while we waited for the ambulance. That slowed us down a little, but soon we were off to Missouri. Just as we hit Kansas City the sun was slowing starting to set. Next thing we know a trucker is honking at us telling us that our back lights weren't working! So we pulled over at ten o'clock at night to try to find a fuse and get us back on the road. That of course took us an hour, but Jason was bound and determined to get us out of Kansas City that night. I can't even remember where we ended up that night. The next morning we were on to St. Louis. Ten minutes into the drive we are in stopped traffic on the freeway. After 45 minutes, we finally started moving again and passed by what had happened. A semi had caught fire. And I mean fire. The whole truck was melted down into something the size of a wheelbarrow. Then, when we hit St. Louis, we realize the side road we need to avoid the city traffic is closed. So.... we got to drive through the town. There were some college kids weaving and being crazy on the freeway, there must have been a big game or something. Anyway, they, of course, end up all crashed on the freeway in front of the semi in front of us. Luckily Jason barely got us stopped in time before we ended up in the back of the semi. We also had to pull a major stunt of crossing 6 lanes of traffic when the garmin (GPS) told us where to merge. But, no big deal we made it across and safely to Kentucky. Kentucky and Tennessee we had no problems and it was such a beautiful drive. Finally, we hit Georgia! It was very late but Jason was determined to make it to Columbus that night. We only ran into an icky situation at a convenient store where I'm pretty sure somebody was going to get shot, so we ran quickly away and decided we could wait for a potty break. But lo and behold we finally made it to Columbus Georgia, where the people are so kind and it is beautiful there. Jason and I got the next day together to explore Columbus and Ft. Benning where he will be stationed. The only glitch was when Jason locked the keys in the car! But an hour later we had that problem fixed too. It really was a great time, but i'm glad to be back home with the kids. Jason will be home the end of July for a week and then he goes to Augusta till November. The kids are wonderful and hopefully I will get some pics up here soon. So, stay posted!
