The Preparations Continue

Well......it almost feels like being prepared.

There is a map. The map includes directions as well as marks for hotel stops. Hotel reservations are even made. However......still waiting to figure out the scavenger hunt items and get the "entertainment plan" together.

There have been some great suggestions thus far:

1. Note and take pictures of towns with colors in the name (Redmond, Brownsville, etc) - courtesy of Jawbreaker
2. Note and take pictures at town signs where the first letter of the towns could be made into other words - also courtesy of Jawbreaker
3. See if we can find and try the Starbucks in each stop - courtesy of Bug
4. Copy all possible episodes of Ashes to Ashes to the Zune for watching along the way - courtesy of Nuurdygirl with the assistance of Geekboy
5. Get a short video of us doing the Brotime dance in each state - courtesy of Geekboy (you just have to see it to believe it)

But something tells me that there is going to be so much more time to fill. I can just feel the boredom from Nebraska setting in already.

There is an odd combination of excitement and worry going along with this trip. By far.....there is more excitement than anything else; however, I can't help but worry that we are trying to do too much in the time we have. Are my directions correct? Will the car be ok? Will we drive each other crazy by the time we get home?

Ok....fingers crossed.......no biting heads off by the time we reach Chicago. :-)
