Minor adjustments...

Still making minor adjustments to the schedule and the overall plan as I do more research. We are trying not to kill ourselves but still all that we'd like too.

Where we're going

We will be making our way across the country via I-40, stopping in major cities along the way and doing some kind of activity in each city as well as eating at a restaurant featured on the show Dinners, Drive-ins and Dives
We love watching that show and we want to make sure we are sampling some of the local foods and not eating places we can eat at home. We have been saving for this trip since last year at this time and as of yesterday we have $1,000 to use on our trip. We are very frugal and have been researching the "things to do" and the "places to eat" for about 2 months now. This trip idea came to me roughly two months ago while thinking about summer activities. Bree and I decided 2 years ago on our train ride to NYC we would visit all the states before we died (Bucket List Item #3). We were not able to go on a vacation last summer as Bree had a very busy summer traveling the country herself. This summer, her summer from 8th-9th grade will be filled with memories and some time to reflect on the past years and look forward to what we have in store. More to come later!!!!!

Planning our Cross Country Adventure

It's that time of year again!!!! Bree and I are planning our next adventure, a cross country adventure from Knoxville to Los Angeles and back. We will be making many stops along the way to partake in some local food and also enjoy some local attractions. We will be driving, eating and laughing our way across the country via I-40.
