4 states later - NY, NJ, PA, OH

We left at 11am this morning. Some tears were shed as mister's parents waved goodbye. Their baby bird, leaving the nest in a big way.

Now that packing is behind us, this road trip is a blast. Nothing better than talking and singing along with the radio for the first 8 hours of our trip. We stopped at Dr. Doolittle's Roadside Creamery in Pennsylvania and had a burger and watched the locals watch us. It was a weird little dive recommended by tripadvisor. They had laser tag, black light mini golf, a petting zoo and a tiny restaurant called "The Chicken House" that was packed with vintage tables, chairs and 25c. rides. 

Mister napped... as he hasn't slept much. *ahem* last minute packer. 

We got back on the road for another 4 hours... Rain, trees, safely arriving at our hotel. South Shore Inn in Sandusky Ohio. I asked for a King room... and I got a King room with a Jacuzzi. Yes. Please! It may not be modern... It may be the wallpaper and furniture remnants of that phase in the 90/early 2000s that was all about burgundy and beige, yeah, well, it may be that, but it's clean and comfortable and the staff remembers my name already. Customer service, I've missed you. 

Going down for dinner at their little attached mexican restaurant. More tomorrow. 

xo,
