Day 18: Back in the land of trees!

Good Morning


This is the evening post


It was a good driving day for the most part

And we choose to watch Iron Man 3 instead of getting as much sleep as we should’ve

We’re middle children and we have issues so this is fully expected

We are the queens of bad decision making


The regularly scheduled announcements for the day

The song of the day was Super Massive Blackhole by Muse

The lowest gas price was 3.55

The highest gas price was 4.67

(Special for today) a funky gas price that made us both uncomfortable: 4.00 even. Where are the numbers…

The aggressive signs of the day

  • Don’t stay thirsty my friends

  • Arrive Alive. Don’t drive aggressive

  • It’s not a race, leave some space

  • WHAAAAAAAAAAT?!

Middle child of the day: We didn’t come up with one today, but for all you middle children out there… you can pretend it was you if you want :)

Now for the daily updates :)

We got up at seven… thirty

We stayed up kind of late watching Iron Man 3 (Elena hadn’t seen it before and Jess wanted to watch it, so we did)

Then we stayed up even later because the STARS man

“I dislike Texas but I will excuse it on the fact that the sky is so endlessly long at night, and all the stars just melt into the mountains :)”

Buc-Ee's is large

It is apparently a very regular Texas rest stop thing?

I am not a texan so I do not know

BUT IT IS SO LARGE

And the starting pay is like, 20???

Would work there but only in total desperation

We saw a whole bunch of Piddidles today too


Dear Texas,

Please replace your headlights


Signed,

Me.


We also saw a billboard for the emergency room today, like

It was being advertised like a car commercial

EMERGENCY ROOM NEXT EXIT SPEEDY MEDICAL ATTENTION !!!!


Wild stuff...

We added a dashboard friend!

The number of Texas flags I’ve counted today

It’s too many

Too many

Please

It was like,

For every American flag

There were two Texas flags

But anyways

We took pictures in Houston

We walked around the Hermann Park area

It was pretty

There was a fake Washington monument and reflecting pool thing

There were birds

And train tracks!! And a super large statue of Sam Houston

comedy

Then we boosted


We ate lunch today, and breakfast technically

And dinner also

So responsible of us


LARGE PIDDIDLE

We saw a car that was just missing a whole headlight

All that was there was a large hole

We arrived in Baton Rouge

We took some pictures

We caught everything right at golden hour so it was phenomenal

Lots of lines, windows, and things to take pictures of through other things

And also reflections and flags

Perfect for the two of us

Sorry that the blog post is late and rather disorganized tonight

We aren’t feeling super hot and jumping from the dry to the humid hot climates hasn’t done either of us any favors


Also we found out that the Hoover Dam exploded today, bummer that we missed it...

But our Airbnb has a pinball machine :)

so it's fine

Lots of love

Don’t steal things

It’s bad

But if you do

Make sure you have a partner in crime

Bonnie and Clyde
