The general story: We rented a car to drive 10 hours North on Friday, to go to my husband's aunt's wedding on Saturday, to drive home on Sunday.
our rental car has xm raido! what are the good stations?
short detour to our old house... they kept the front door red!
pimped out station wagon, dual exhaust, "hiofficr" licence plate, driven by an OLD guy, #onlyiniowa
random things you learn about your husband (of almost 7 years!) on a long road trip: he was in chior at school....
he will drive on a rumble strip to drown out me singing 90s boy band songs to him (its my turn to control the raido!)
the cars speekers can go real loud... he found the hip hop station and my insides are jiggling
five hours down...five more to go.... #iowasucks #roadtrip#ilovemyhusband
my fingers hurt from picking all the salt off my pretzels...
who has rush hour at 2:20 in the afternoon? #roadtrip #iowasucksworse
we are going AWAY from the equator...why is the temp going up?#roadtrip #iowasucks
we just stopped at the most pregnant gas station...3 ladies about to pop walking around inside. #roadtrip #iowaisfertile
hey, there aren't any floor mats in this #rentalcar #roadtrip
(a friend who rented us the car tweeted to me that when rental car companies buy the type of car we got they don't come with them...)
thats weird.... they have the little hooks for them (my toe found one...) #ouch #roadtrip #stubbedtoe
Trav thinks i'm slap happy... and doesn't love that I'm using up my data... he warned me I better not go over #orelse! #roadtrip
Whats in the box that is so important that it blocks your field of vision? After following them for 78 miles? Ice Tea.
