On the Road Again July 30, 2008

Our morning started off early which some of the other guys didn’t want to get up but with 12 hours of traveling ahead of us,  we got on the road about 745. We drove a little bit to find breakfast at…….you guessed it, MCDONALDS!!!  We also found a Starbucks to wake us up a little bit, or at least the driver. Josh and I slept in the back to charge up for driving. There wasn’t much activity outside of that besides lunch at Sonic in White House, Tennessee. We arrived at Jason’s second cousin Sidney’s house. He is a very nice man who lives in a small town of Tunica, Mississippi. We got there around 745 and were shown to the bed rooms. We sat down and talked for a while because he is a sport fanatic like the rest of us. He then cooked us up some steaks and salads which we amazing. It was very pleasing to have some good hearty steak meat in a while. After dinner, he said he was going to sleep at a friend’s house and said he leaves his house for his daughters and their children all the time. I think we felt bad for having him leave us his house, but he said make yourself at home. So we had the whole house to ourselves when all we need was just the roof. All in all, he is a very generous man and we are all very tired. Another 8 hours of unfamiliar road. Last big drive!
