Epic Road Trip - Day 4

Today all we did was drive and drive. Trying to catch up a little bit on our journey so we can make it to Arizona about when we are supposed to. The van is pretty tricked out right now. There is a 24" TV, a blue-ray dvd player and a full game system all hooked up. Riding in the back is like being in a really nice theater.

Last night's movie was Mary Poppins. It is one of our favorites and it helps the time pass quickly. We also started watching Fiddler on the Roof but didn't finish as we stopped for the night to sleep in Clarksville, Arkansas.

Lydia is still required to attend her Seminary class each day. So her instructor gave us the home study manual to maintain her attendance each day. It took us almost two hours for the lesson this morning but we have a nice study area set up in the back of the van too.

Thayne has never had a Whataburger before, so once we hit Oklahoma City there was the opportunity to share with our boy what was a childhood food memory for his parents. He thought the burger was huge. We had lunch there and then it was fill up with gasoline at $2.19 and head on out again.

The big sky of Texas loomed over us and as the sun set over the horizon, we were headed into Amarillo where not by morning but by evening we will had made it here.
