West Virginia, Mountain Mama, Country Roads Take me Home

Well, it seems like deja vu but it isn't.  My car is bulging to the gunwales again but this time it's not snowing.  Last time it was like, "Here I go again on my own, walking down the only road, I walk alone."  However, this time, I'm not alone.  I have an ominous presence following me.  It follows me in a giant red SUV with my parents inside (don't worry, it isn't a Hummer so put your middle finger down and stop hurling those naughty words at my family and me). It has followed me in this same car before on a more different road trip.  That road trip started by almost not beginning but thanks to my father, the trip happened and Liz and I made the epic journey from Tacoma to Colorado with my dad following us.  Luckily, I did not have a car accident today and this new road trip is going to happen!  

So, we are ready...to ROCKSTEADY...all the way to Virginia!  The cars are loaded (mine is sagging in the back because of all the CRAP I'm bringing).  The good ol' road trip mixes (thanks to Lizzie's hard work) are back in their case and ready to be played.  My mom has planned out this epic road trip so it will last 4 days.  She said, "I want to be able to stop whenever I want.  There might be lots of the 'biggest balls of yarn' and I want to be able to name which is truly the biggest."  Cooper has his own pair of goggles and he is PSYCHED to be going.  

It's time for me to leave good ol' Canon City.  Michael Jackson died today and perhaps a little piece of me will die when I hit the city limit (marked by the Super Walmart).  Probably not, but who knows.  On to new things, like Hebrew.  Look up "Hebrew Alphabet Song" on YouTube, and you'll see what I've been practicing before I start class on the 6th of July!  Highly entertaining, I promise.  

I'll keep you posted.  

It doesn't matter if you're black or white...
