14-Pics From the Road

  We left our house today to travel up to Detroit to visit with Deanna and Kenny who are good friends and also cousins.  They had to move up to Detroit for work when the Chrysler plant closed here in St. Louis.

Checking to make sure the luggage and coolers are tight

We pulled off to a rest stop to…well….stop and rest.  We got some food out of the cooler and made some sandwiches to eat while we drove.

Lydia has always been an absolute model of a “traveling” dog. She was pretty happy with just laying on somebody’s lap for the entire drive.  In this picture she is wearing her…believe it or not…special “car seat” harness.
