We left Madison at 8am, it took about two hours to leave the area affected by the storm. 120 miles covered at 15mph would have been a painful ordeal. I am thankful I chose to stop for the night.

I’m worried. I think Aidan is going to be either a politician or preacher. He has succesfully charmed $0.50 out of elderly couples for the gumball machines at various stops. I hope this does not prove to be a pattern.

It’s nice to finally be at our destination. I’ve got our clothes in the washer and I can’t wait to take a hot shower and crawl into some warm jeans straight out of the dryer.

It’s 32 degrees outside. I don’t understand the attraction to this climate.
