As I stated in the lastContinue reading "Missing Puzzle Piece"

Hey everyone, Hope you all are enjoying the fall weather in Georgia. I'm am very jealous right now because we are still hitting 100s to the 80s.  And palm trees don't change color! Oh well!

Wow, my brain feels like it has been fried. Not in the bad way, but in the good formation way, but my brain just isn't used to be pushed to think outside of the box.

There is NOTHING on I-40! Let me recap for you the lovely scenery from Memphis to El Reno (an hour outside of OK City).  We saw trees, fields, red barns, construction, cows, a few lakes, casinos,....and more shrubs.  We left Memphis about 9am but didn't get to I-40 until 9:30am because we stopped in theContinue reading "Absolutely Nothing…."
