Updates from the Road

Thursday's (we think it's Thursday) Top Ten Things You Should Know About Our Road Trip

1) Do not take pictures of border patrol booths
2) The "Thing" in Arizona is not cool at all and a total waste of $1
3) You can buy a bull whip, moccasins, giant fireworks, faux leather vests, a water feature for your lawn, a ceramic frog holding a bow and arrow, and homemade fudge at any truck stop on I-10
4) The GPS doesn't know where the In-N-Out burger is in Tuscan, bu tour noses can lead us to one within 100 miles.
5) Its amazing how much fun you can fit in a shoebox - Thanks Lindsay Flinn!
6) The best way to survive New Mexico is a rockin' playlist of showtunes and sountracks - Newsies, anyone?
7) Truckers really like our "Footloose" dance moves
8) Come on trucks! Get out of the left lane - we're a Mini on a mission.
9) Thanks to Mike and Linda Smyth we woke up this morning with a hangover and a clean windshield
10) 500 miles to Dallas - we might have to make a hard left to Canada (we don't want this roadtrip to end!)
