So Jason and I might go visit my grandfather and his wife in Missouri in a couple weeks! This actually marks our very first vacation as husband and wife, since we didn't go on a honeymoon. Of course now we all have to sit and ponder for awhile the sheer excitement of Missouri.
So... any luck?
No, seriously folks, we know, for example, that we will be going to Lambert's, a restaurant where they throw your dinner rolls to you from across the room and walk around with huge buckets of fried stuff which they dish onto your table while you're waiting for your actual dinner. We'll probably also go to Silver Dollar City and make fun of the rednecks, and the Bass Pro Shop, and Jason can rejoice in living among people who are not paranoid of guns. And of course my grandpap is just a cool person.
We also made note that two of our groomsmen just happen to live in Indiana state, which is conveniently exactly halfway between here and Missouri, so we could even stop along the way. I would enjoy spending time with Sean and Jen and their kids myself, though I don't know what I'd do while Jason was hanging out with Eric. I'm trying to think how we could manage to visit MY two best friends who live in the midwest (one was a bridesmaid, one did the readings), but they live remarkably too far north. Whoever thought the midwest could be so large? Theoretically we could make a big triangle and pull off seeing Ang in Minnesota, because Minnesota is like straight north of Missouri (I was pondering the map for awhile), although approximately the same distance Pennsylvania is from Missouri. It's an equilateral triangle. And as it is we ARE very lacking in funds, and can only afford to go to Missouri because my grandpap has offered to pay for gas! But as Jason says, "We're being like college kids on roadtrips! See America on Unemployment Comp a Day!" 'Tis fun. Forget the mortgage. Dang mortgage.
Now I'm going to go out and find something to kill the evil ants who have taken over the bathrooms. For some reason both bathrooms, no other rooms-- think they're crawling up the plumbing or something.
