Road Trip to Flagstaff- DAY 1
Well, praise the Lord, finals are over and the time has finally come! Kendra and I have been roommates all 4 yrs and I have yet to take her to my home...but have no fear, the opportunity finally presented itself in our senior year!!December 16th, Kendra and I left Big D to head west on a great adventure riding in "Gretta the Jetta". Our plan was to drive to Amarillo the first day, then knock out the rest the next day. The car was successfully packed (by 3 girls) sheep and all :)
We headed north up to Oklahoma City, but our trip didnt progress quickly due to a couple of stops :) We didnt get to far because we ate at Logans restaraunt (merely because we had a gift card we wanted to use)- but we were fueled by our steak salads- YUM!
our next stop was to go see Kathy's puppy Tex and let him out (and to play with him a bit :) ) So that was another pit stop we made before we really hit the road... we were tempted to take the puppy with us but figured that probably wouldnt be a good idea... we gave the puppy a kiss goodbye and finally hit the road for Amarillo!
The first stretch of our trip was going to take 7.5 hrs, but with our Ipods fully loaded and fun road trip gifts to open, we were set!! Good convos and duets were the entertainment for the night! We ate at good ol McDonalds and got to the hotel in Amarillo safely (a few hours later than we expected), but hey, we made it and thats the most important thing!
Plan for tomorrow:
-Drive half way to Albuquerque to eat lunch with some awesome relatives (yeah for home cooked meals!)
-drive the last 5 hrs to good ol, snow covered mountains flagstaff and spend some sweet time with the family!!
More adventures to come but thus far its 2 thumbs up :)
