Every time you are tempted to react in the same old way, ask if you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future.

Vacation Days 1 & 2

Friday after work/school we finished packing, ran to the bank for some cash and hit the road for Tennessee. Chris drove most of the night. I only drove for 3 hours, but I'm sure it helped. I like traveling at night if I have to drive, and during the day if Chris wants to do all the driving. Hehe.

So we arrived in Murfreesboro Saturday morning about 1am. We got up around 7 and chilled at the house till about 11, when we left to buy some shorts at Walmart, get lunch at Jim-N-Nicks BBQ, and then stop at the ever-so-amazing Geographical Center of Tennessee. (Yes, we even pointed the fingers! lol) --Pictures are on Emilia's camera since I left mine at home! It's broken anyways - needs a new one. --- Then we returned to the house, took naps, and played the Wii and watched "The Proposal" before heading to bed.

We woke up at 5am, left the drive at 6AM. We stopped in Alabama to see the rocket at the Welcome Center, and arrived in New Orleans about 2:55pm. Met up with Thom and Heidi, checked into the hotel, and then hit Bourbon Street for dinner at La Bayou. Yum!

Saints had a home game and they won, so we opted to make it an early night to avoid the crazies. But tomorrow night - the town is ours!!!!
