Drive to St. Louis, MO was on my list of things to do today.- Get boys off to school
- PTA Board Meeting
- Media Center training
- Drive to St. Louis
Just another thing on my list to check off. (That is how I envisioned the trip at 10am.)
As the day progressed the "vision" changed... a few times...
We made it to Hendersonville in 2 hours... my sister has a lead foot, we'll be there in half the time!
Our first State line crossing... we did it!
Second State line...I'll give a stick of gum to the first person (over the age of 20) who can tell me where that is from.
Third state line...(not our photo. ours is on Kate's camera)
Are we there yet? Really? How many more miles? Check again. Just over half way there?
The St. Louis Arch (not our photo either)Funny Story - I am driving into St. Louis and Kate says, "Look the arc!" I look at billboards in the direction she is pointing.
"What?", I asked.
"What?", I asked.
Kate says,"The Arc! The St. Louis Arc! "
As the Arch comes into my view, I shake my head and say, "The Ark? You mean the Arch, ch makes a 'cha' sound, 'arch'."
She was thinking arc (like in geometry). I heard ark (like in Noah).
The conversation continues... but I won't bore you.

I was seriously looking for a billboard with a picture of an ark on it! (k, silly I know, but it was late and I was focused on where we were going)
Tomorrow we are off to see some church history sites. More site seeing=less driving!
