Carolyn went on her first road trip last week, traveling all the way from Chicago to San Antonio. We were delivering a car to my brother and going to my nephew's 1st birthday party. We split the trip into two days with an overnight stop at my dad's house in Tulsa. Carolyn was a trooper and only melted down in the last hour of our 18 hour trip.
5:30 am on Thursday smiley and ready to go
Nap time after a slight detour (I forgot my wallet so we had to head back home after driving for half an hour. Thank you, Desi, for checking to make sure I had everything!)

Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas brought Carolyn's total of states visited up to 5. (Indiana being the 5th). We wished that we had an extra day to stop and visit with our St. Louis friends.
In Tulsa, Carolyn met my stepmother Tracey and stepsister Rachel for the first time.
You won't find much along highway 75S in Durant, OK, but you will find The Peanut Shoppe: Home to "Nuts of All Kinds". We stopped in to get some of their homemade beef jerky and chocolate covered raisins, peanuts and malt balls.
Texas!
