On the Road Again

We took a week off for a break from our busy lives to enjoy each other and Spend some greatly needed time with Jessie. So we borrowed mom and dads RV, loaded our stuff and filled the tank with gas and grabbed a map. Seven days of freedom on the open road. Our first night we ended up in northern Land Between the Lakes. A beautiful place, but a rough day of big wind and the warm weather seemed to stop once we left Tennessee. We visited the homeplace where Jessie got to see her first horse, some ducks, oxen, chickens, buffalo, elk and pigs. After the tour we headed for the camp ground for dinner and a good nights sleep. Our goal for today was to spend some time out of the RV and enjoy the beautiful day we were given so we unplugged the RV and headed for Pennyrile State Park for hopefully a great playground and some hiking trails or a scenic picnic area. We found the playground, but with no swing, played for a short while and decided to head out for Lincoln state park in IN. We plan on spending the day here tomorrow and then heading off to St. Louis for the ZOO on Wednesday. Jessie did receive her first semi black eye. While Chad and i were busy getting the RV settled in, she made her way out the door and down the steps with a graceful "kurplat" onto the ground outside. She is doing fine, but in case you are wondering, Chad and I do have some emotional damage. Our final destination for the week is Indianapolis for the triplets second birthday. but until then...we are just driving!
