part one- UEA 2012

Every October here in Utah the UEA (Utah Education Association) has a couple day break for teachers.

That break for us was last Thursday & Friday.

So

We hopped into the car & headed up to Grandma & Grandpa Messer's house.

You know you are in Wyoming when the McDonald's looks like this:

The kids were impressed.

Chloe & Trent

ya-- we went on a road trip with only 2 kids.

2 kids?

This is the McDonald's in Evanston

We ran to the local Walmart to grab some water bottles-- forgot those

and our battery died.

Luckily we were saved by a kind stranger & off we went, on the road again.

good reading

and did I mention we took

Nya along?

Just because you know-- only 2 kids in the car & no dogs!

 What kind of trip would that be?

We made it to Cody in just under nine hours!

Proof- the Irma hotel 

(I've still never been there)

and Grandma & Grandpa's mailbox row.

More on this trip tomorrow.
