Road Rally 2016

We are cruising pretty often now to finalize the route! And we are the lucky ones, because the weather has been really nice and the leaves are changing colors, the fields are doing the same. It might be all gone when you get to drive the route but we are certainly enjoying it. Each time we go out, Barb drives and I read the directions. Then we constantly change what we originally did to make it more interesting. I am writing and then the eraser is doing its job!! The dictionary and my iPhone are also getting a work out!
