The Browns


15th thru the 16th
Hi! This post is a little late as internet access is now a luxury!
On the last post, the 15th was a little bit off, that was actually Memphis Arkansas not the Memphis in Tennessee. And we have stayed at one more RV park. The reason why that post is off is that it was written by me on the 14th! (Me overachieving)
Any wayz we stayed at the RV Park in Memphis Arkansas which was sweet! They had a pool and this GIANT chess board with pieces bigger than la-la (Elaina’s nickname). We (jojo and I) also got to ride these awesome bike things that they had at the camp! They were low to the ground, like a chair and super fun to ride! Then at 12:30pm then we packed up camp and hit the road! (Personally can’t wait till we get somewhere and stay there for a loooooong while) then headed to Nashville where saw General Andrew Jacksons Plantation it was really beautiful! That night we played put-put golf and I won by two puts! After that we swam and played at the playground with the babies AND WE WENT TO BED. A long day!

The 17th
Our family is in Nashville! We went to a huge mall ( Opry mall) and had lots of fun there. And have now arrived at our destination Louisville Kentucky.

The 18th
A mostly uneventful day. I baby sat the kiddos while mom and dad were at the conference.

The 19th
Another mostly uneventful day. But this morning our friend Russell made this fabulous, amazing, spectacular, zingy Vietnamese style espresso iced coffee! It was sooooo good! And while mom and dad where in the conference I made delicious chocolate chip cookies for them and cleaned the RV! Then that evening we had a cook out and made with a water hose a water slide!

20th
We are now ending our trip, we are on our way to Memphis to spend the night then head home.
Fun facts:


it took me 10 miles to wash dishes
I have taken a shower at 70 MPH

We have hit the highest gas price 4.25 (this is not really a “fun” fact just a fact).

The little ones nap for 180 miles

Midnight Departure

Midnight, Saturday June 12th,
The bus is loaded, kids are securely buckled, 1 ½ dump-truck loads of stuff, a full tank of gas (at 3.98 a gallon) and we are off! Our first stop was a restaurant where we bought some very healthy food… then a truck stop and then we caught a few z’s ;).

The 13th
The next day we had a fun and fabulous drive then did a health demo in Ada Oklahoma. We then stayed at a nice RV park, fished, washed the dogs (yes we took them both) and I reluctantly emptied the grey and black holding tanks………

The 14th
We have enjoyed a gorgeous scenic drive to a beautiful state park in Arkansas, where we went and swam at the beach, fished, and hiked! (We wish you were here!) Then wound down over pop-corn, root beer and Over the Hedge. The only problem we have had Is that the master bedroom wont cool, but then I found the problem, the room was on heat, which also explains why the LP level was depleting…

The 15th
We are on our way to Memphis Tennessee to stay the night at a KOA camp ground then to the final destination Kentucky for our conference! (Ya know it is kind of fun to be in the outdoor woods and still have running water, AC, TV and laptops!)
