Road Trippin Fools

This is from our road trip last summer -we took a dip in Lake Superior in the morning and one in Lake Michigan (behind us) in the afternoon. The water was freakin cold! Tom's good ol' Chevy just won't die, so we keep driving it across the states, visiting friends and seeing new places. Next trip, coming right up!

Last summer's trip was a midwesterners delight: First stop Missouri, where friends Cat and Matt live in platanic love (as far as him mother knows), then onto Omaha, Tom's motherland, to play with family and friends. From there we went north into the land of 10 billion lakes, many of which we swam in, and one of which caught a fish in. We stayed at the family cabin in Minnesota somewhere northwest of Marshall, then went up to Deluth to see our friends Sarah, Martin, and their baby Kiera. From there we cut across the top of Wisconsin and the upper peninsula of Michigan, which is rock solid good looking. That was my fave stretch of the trip. Last stop, my family's cottage in the Irish Hills of Michigan, where we played with my family and did as little as humanly possible. Then back to VA where we live on this groovy farm along the Moorman's river with our friends Jay and Erika and their son Lio and their baby that is yet to come out. Best swimming hole in the county is in our back yard. Beat that, fools.

Next road trip: coming soon (March, April, May? -depends on our ship off date for the Peace Corps). If you love us and live within 1,200 miles we'll come see you! Put in your requests now!
