On The Road Again...

It is -1 degrees outside!

What a great way to start a blog entry right?!

So we ventured off again yesterday to the great midwest! We stopped in Montpelier, OH last night and made it to Wausau today at about 530 Central Time. So far, so good, except a few days before we left I got this nasty cold courtesy of the baby I was nannying for and being in a car for 10 hours when you have a really bad head cold isn't the most pleasant of things.
Speaking of things that aren't so pleasant, unfortunately we had to get a new van and they didn't have any 15 passenger vans left so we had to get a 12 passenger and take the back seat out for luggage so there are only two benches instead of three so two people have to share the back bench. It's not SO bad but we got spoiled by having our own benches to stretch out on for the first leg so we now are having a very difficult time learning how to get comfortable sleeping sitting up but hopefully we will get there. Or maybe we will get a new van?! A girl can dream...

So tonight we went to the Wausau Mining Company for dinner... it's a cute little local restaurant that looks like a mine, both inside and out! The food was pretty good and most everyone came so it was a fun welcome back to tour dinner!

Tomorrow we have a day off and we are trying to figure out what to do. There is a Ski mountain 2.5 miles from our hotel that a few of us looked into going to but I don't know if we feel like forking up the money, so we shall see! But regardless we are back in action. Phantom Tollbooth takes over the midwest!!
