What's Up with the Straws? and The Price of Moving

What’s Up with the Straws?

Before this vacation even began, our neighborhood McDonalds had forgotten to give us straws for our drinks, TWICE!!  I know… all the responsible ones out there are saying, “You should check those things before you leave the drive-thru.”  I know!  But I was busy checking the food count and I didn’t notice the missing straws until all the food was divvied out and we were down the road with no straws.  We then came up with this brilliant idea to pick up extra straws along the way for our own private stash.  So for all those following our adventure: Day one = 3 straws.

We are also playing the traditional “license plate” game.  We are hoping to see all 50 states along with all 10 provinces and 3 territories.  By the end of Day 1, our count is:  29 states, 3 provinces, 0 territories.  We are pretty impressed we spotted over ½ the states in one day!

The Price of Moving

Monday’s Cheapest Gas Price = $3.19 per gallon (Of course, we saw this right after we filled up at $3.43  Can’t complain though, that’s still cheaper than NY)

  1. Pastor Dave said you were bringing the whole church straws from your trip. I want one of those cool ones that change colors! :) Looks like you're having tons of fun! :)
