Day 16... looooong travel day

After about 11 1/2 hours on the road, we arrived in Little Rock, Arkansas. Our trip, for the most part, was uneventful. It did, however, take us a little while to get out of Odessa this morning due to some confounding construction. The highlights of our journey:
  • low price of gas was $2.79 a gallon just outside of Dallas
  • Waffle House hit the spot and gave me Alice's Sweet Tea to-go
  • We picked up the Phillies/Dodgers game on Espn Radio and were able to listen to the game for most of the ride
  • Phils won, 8-5 and now lead the series, 2-0!!

Tomorrow we're only going as far as Nashville, TN. The 350 miles we have to travel tomorrow will seem like nothing following the 670 we did today. I am grateful for this time with my parents, no matter how interminable the car-rides have seemed.
