Details . . . !

So I have been asked to give details on the roadtip 2012!! Well . . . sit back and relax. Leaving May, hopefully with my wonderful cousin Debbie [ahem], we will make our way first to Mackinac Island, Michigan to stroll through the streets of the past. Next we will make our way to Pennsylvania to see how the Amish get things done! Then on to New York, New Yoooooork where we will honor the fallen at the Ground Zero memorial and spend a few days touring that great city with my amazing step sister Megan! Furthing our historical experience we'll head up to Boston, MA to stay with the greatest in-laws known to mankind [and they're not even mine!!] where we'll do the Freedom Tour, as well as many others! After that we'll mosy on over to Cape Cod and spend a couple days surfin and turfin before we head down to Maryland to see my uncle. Gerry lives only minutes away from Washington D.C! So of course, we will be touring our great capital, something I did when I was eight, but lets be honest - eight year olds just never fully grasp what it is they're witnessing! This is the point where Debbie will leave me - sad face - and I will be left to embark on the rest of my journey aloooooone. Thank goodness I have people who love me! I will be spending the next 6 weeks in Tennessee with my wonderful Nanny, Manny, and their two kids helping around the farm and experiencing all that they, and Tenneesee, has to offer! During my stay we will be taking a trip to Williamsburg, Va - my place of birth and the place they got married. Once I leave Tennessee [or before I even go? This part is fuzzy!] I'll head over to North Carolina to drench myself with salt water and get lost in the goo's and gaaa's of my friend Beth - I mean  . . . her baby! Next up - Louisiana!!!! Not that I have contacted anybody there to post me up, but I am hoping to spend three days in New Orleans and Baton Rouge trying spicy food, biting the heads off of crawfish, and having a genuinely good time with Linnzie's family. Speaking of Linnzie, that brings us to Texas. Houston to be exact, where I will spend time with Reignie and Charlie, Linnzie and Kyle - and little peanut!! Linnzie will be 7 months pregnant at that time and I can't wait to lay my head on that belly! Four days later I will find myself in Tulsa, Oklahoma visiting little miss Maggie Mae! I have only ever met her once but we love each other more than one visit should allow! After one whirlwind romance of a day there I will head up to Denver, Colorado to spend time with friends and family - although by this time my family will be in Cape Cod - so friends it will be! Finally I will drive home to Minnesota where two days later I take a plane back to Cape Cod to be the Maid of Honor in my sister Sarah's marriage to Greg - making them the Zoneely's!! WHEW! Thank God I cancelled half of my trip right?!?! So pray for me and my travels this summer 2012!!
