Scott is spending the month of October doing an away rotation in the windy city and what better bonding experience than a 16 hour road trip!!!We left Thursday evening from Norfolk, VA- stopped in Richmond to have dinner with my parents- then arrived at his parents house in Staunton at 10:00pm Thursday evening- cutting 3 hours out of the trip. Scott woke up at 4:30am to pack the car, recline the passenger seat, and perfectly position my pillow all in the midst of a downpour (Somehow a "terradactile sized bug" entered the car and it took us two highway pull overs to get the creature out of the car). He woke me up at 5:00 and we were on our way. I slept for 2 more hours then we found a Cracker Barrel in WV to eat breakfast. We sidetracked through Upland, Indiana to visit his alma mater Taylor University. After visiting the athletic department, prayer deck, cafeteria, bookstore, tennis courts, driving by his house, walking part of the loop, eating at Toppit Pizza, and getting ice cream at Ivanhoes, we were back on the road heading towards Chicago. We pulled into his Aunt and Uncles driveway at 10:30pm and had a wonderful nights sleep after the rain filled day long drive and LOTS of laughs and memories.
