Day 2: Indiana

I am happy to say that through thick and thin we have made it safely to Crawfordsville, Indiana. We are currently at an awesome KOA Kampground, but before I go into more details about our current situation I should give you some background info on how we got here exactly.

We set out from out home in Summerfield, NC and not even 10 minutes from the house the fridge was opened and the milk, tomatoes, and meat products flew in every direction. Once set to a "safe" location another turn and they proceeded to scatter everywhere again. We learned early on that you needed to stay seated and keep your hands to yourself to survive with the RV's turbulence.

It took us a long 5 hours to get to the beautiful, constantly under construction, cousin loving state of West Virginia. We didn't really have a place to stay planned out so we parked at the only convenient free place around: WALMART. Too tired to extend the pull out bed Anne-Christian slept on the floor and I slept as close as possible to her seeing that it was 1:30 AM and it was a tad bit sketchy/scary.

Dad awoke at an early 6:30 AM and we made our way onward through Kentucky. As his co-pilot Kentucky definitely was a blessing because its' gorgeous horse farms intrigued my interests enough to keep me awake. We were making great time until a nice gentleman pulled up beside us and told us that a strap had broken on the van that we were pulling behind us.  It took us three hours to fix it, but thankfully it was even fixable at all!

Too tired to drive much more mom called around to RV camps and we found an awesome one in Indiana.  We just had an delicious grilled dinner of chicken, zucchini, and balsamic tomatoes, and now we are about to watch The Kings Speech on the tv outside!!!
