All your routes look so...

Yeah. Total fun. We've done every route now and they're all equally boring.

Middle-end of October. I have to be there by a specific date but don't have to leave a certain time.

I think you should drive I-65 up through Alabama....

just saying..... oh would you look at that.... it goes right through Cullman!

In Hunstville there is the Space and Rocket Center we have the Ava Maria Grotto in Cullman. The Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament is about 7 min from my house. You can take tours and learn about Catholicism (my best friend does the tours) its beautiful and really neat. Its where Mother Angelica lives, the creator of EWTN. There are Bed and Breakfast houses right outside the gates.

Hannah is the most subtle person I know.

I will talk to the counterpart and see what routes look best. Last time we ended up going weird places.

On a total side note, we're Independent Fundamental Baptists and my husband (a converted Catholic) would totally have a duck.

I haven't been to that part of AL in a while! We would love to see you. Maybe we could just drive a loop for a few days: AL to ATL to VA to TN. Makes total sense. GPS stopped working!

Mrs. Brock · 08-30-2012, 10:13 PM

I'm southern Baptist

I love going to the Shrine though... its so peaceful. Its a good place to go and relax and think. I would love to see you and the girls though! If your girls like nature stuff there are the Rickwood Caverns. Too bad its not gonna be during our County Fair!

I know you are. That's why it cracked me up.

We have the Marianna Caverns here but the girls haven't been. They've only done the Cave of the Winds caverns in CO...where R was a baby and left puff snacks all over.

I would take I-10 all the way through Florida, louisiana, and Texas and get on I-25 in New Mexico!

perfect! you could come to abby's first birthday party!

id have to plan that first and come to terms with my baby turning one.

Well, I do not like either of your routes...

**AbramsPatrol** · 09-04-2012, 09:25 PM

Here's the thought: if we go from here to either ATL or AL (ahem, Hannah) and then to Ft Campbell, we could head to Wichita and on to CO? Am I missing anyone?

I would completely change the routes if we could drop by and see you. You know it!

redhd21 · 09-04-2012, 11:58 PM

You could always swing really low and come through Houston

You could totally swing that along with all the other MSSN stops you have to make along the way... Right?!

Sooz · 09-05-2012, 01:15 AM

I always get left out.

**KarliG** · 09-05-2012, 08:37 PM

Take me with you! I miss CO a ton! I haven't lived there in over 8 years, but I wish we could go back!

Enjoy it for me!

Mrs. Brock · 09-05-2012, 09:43 PM

Coming through AL seems about right to me
