Last night in an effort to cheer us up (to get over the drama thats been going on) Dayna and I decided to go for a drive. We ended up seeing if we could find the road to Independence again. We got ourselves some coffee, snacks and gased up the car. I pretty much knew which road it was on but didn't know how far along the road it was so we kept our eyes peeled.
45 (or so) minutes later we found it.
We were very excited.
So we followed the arrow to Independence but we found nothing at the end. (Actually we found an abandoned church but the pics of that didn't turn out so well so....)
After we played around with the picture taking we continued to drive on. I threw in a CD that I hadn't listened to in a while (and didn't remember what was on it). Turns out it was a bunch of sappy songs. We enjoyed singing along to the old sappy songs and by the time we got back to her place we were still enjoying it enough that we sat in the car singing some more. B came out to join us for a few sappy songs. (and of course that included Open Arms by Journey which cracked us up and this time I didn't hurt anyone when I flung my arms open) Then we all went inside to listen and sing to some of the cheese that B has on his computer. It was a great night.

Glad to hear you're still able to cheer yourself up after such a rough week. Btw, I' like sappy love songs.
It was a very good way to start the weekend. :)
I haven't done that before sleeplessly single. We usually would just go out for coffee or stay in so this was something different. I loved it though and I think the next time we need a break we'll do the same thing... pick a different direction and just drive.
That gives me an idea.
You could write a story using town signs.
Like those refrigerator magnets.
hmmmmmm
"We ended up seeing if we could find the road to Independence again."
How poetic.
Can I get a larger copy of that "Road to Independence" picture?
