Today was day one of our little vacation. We left at about 930 this morning, and got here at about 7 tonight. There was construction on our way out of town, and then of course, more construction as we got close to our destination. We ended up having to take a detour, and that added half an hour in itself.
Our GPS also didn't want us going through Billings for some odd reason, so instead it sent us on a dirt highway. It was pretty smooth and it was kinda interesting, we had to go slow though, so I think that added time too. Basically, this highway (500, if you must know) goes through a bunch of people's land because there were horses in our way. Twice. I should have gotten a picture, but oh well. They were gorgeous horses.
Steve also hit a bird while I was sleeping. He had swerved earlier when I was awake to avoid hitting one, and I yelled at him for it. Daddy taught me not to swerve to miss things because they are more likely to make it out of the way in time if I don't, but also because it's more dangerous for me. It's not worth getting into a wreck to avoid hitting a bird. So, he just simply hit it while I was asleep. I woke up, and he told me so we pulled over and he had to pull the bird off the front of the car. It was kind of caught in the grille.
Anyway, once we got there, we went straight to BT's (the friend we are staying with) and chilled a little. Then we went to Hastings to sell back a bunch of books I wanted to get rid of. We don't have a used bookstore where we live, so I decided to just bring them with. I got rid of a bunch, and picked out a few new ones.
I called my friend SH to meet us there, and the boys went to go eat at Sonic while she and I went back to her parents' house so I could meet OH. This picture is very dark, and I'll get better ones later, but this is the best I've got for now. :)
I think I'm going to go make the boys stop playing Xbox so we can all get some sleep. Our host has work in the morning anyways. More to come later! Hopefully with more pics!
