Fall Break Mega Road Trip - Part 1

Planned for our fall break this year was a massive week-long road trip looping down through Oklahoma and Texas.  Included in the plans were some sightseeing, family time, and geocaching.  So we pointed the car west but hit our first stop just a few hours down the road.  Can't drive through Illinois without seeing the family.  Up first was to cheer on Carson at a soccer match. (A COLD one at that)

Rachel got her puppy snuggles in with Milo

Also on the agenda was a Flora staple...a few rounds of bowling. 

Dusty's dad had requested that we all sing together at church the next time we were in town.  So all of us sang a special together adults and kids.  First the kids did a song together.  Not sure what caused these giggles.

After a fun weekend with family, we headed off toward Missouri.  We made time to snag a few interesting geocaches such as this one along Route 66

Geocaching always seems to bring us to some fun off-the-path sites.  This was at the intersection of Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma.  

 We took a 15-mile detour to cut through a corner of Kansas to this random cemetery in Kansas.  Mainly to log a geocache in Kansas.

Next up...our Oklahoma adventures.
