Well, relatively uneventful day, largely just travel. Another 360 miles or so, and a really nice drive through huge wheat fields and corn fields (it's like Kansas and Iowa.) Then, you hit the mountains, and a beautiful drive with mountain lakes, great passes, and all around enjoyable scenery.
We're happy to report Faith is feeling better. She's still running a mild fever, but way better than last night. Kenzie had a bit of a headache today, but not sure if that's the same illness, or car sickness or dad-sickness or what.
Mom and Dad are doing well, and we're all still settling into the routine, figuring out pre-destination (not THAT pre-destination) research schedules, school work, and all of that. Michelle has done a great job, although home-schooling full time doesn't appear to be in the future for our family. ;-> The girls are filling out an information sheet for each destination and using the web and their textbooks to gather data, plus normal schoolwork, videos, and the blog/journal. Lots going on.
We're heading into Seattle tomorrow for the big sightseeing day. Peanut gets to come with us since all of the places are outside and/or dog friendly...he'll love that. He escaped to a neighboring campsite for a little barbecue, so he's enjoying Seattle so far.
Take care, and thanks for your continued prayers!

Hi Faith, Kenzie, Michelle, and Kevin! Oh yeah, and Peanut too. I am so excited to be able to experience your trip with you. Faith I am getting our classroom ready for your classmates to be able to follow you on your trip around the U.S.A. What a fantastic experience. We will keep in touch.
