Utah or Bust!

 We started our summer trek out to Utah for vacation on Monday, June 29.  We packed into the Explorer and headed out at 8:02 in the morning.  Our goal was to attempt to do the drive in two days but have the option of going longer if I needed the break.  Easton was my passenger and we also had Sophia Higgins join us.  She was headed to Utah to surprise her friend, Andrea Groll and hang out with her for a few weeks.  
 Our first day of driving we made it to St. Joseph, Missouri and stayed at the Stoney Creek Inn.  We have stayed there in the past and knew it was a clean hotel.
 Along the way we had a few dinner stops but we mostly just went through the drive thru restaurants so we could eat and drive at the same time.  We wanted no wasted time!

 We stopped in a teeny-tiny town in Wyoming with the population of 1.  Buford, Wyoming was windy and even a little chilly.  We got gas and had an icecream!  The town consists of one gas station and one house.



We arrived at Grandma and Grandpa's at 10:40 on Tuesday evening and had a late night cereal party!  We made awesome time and I am glad we were able to get our driving done in two days....a driving marathon for sure, but it's done.  Now we just get to have fun!
