Good Morning!

Hi y'all!

We're enjoying our breakfast in Knoxville, TN this morning (Make-yourself waffles!). Last night we rolled in at 11:00pm and the nice people at the hotel let us extend the pool hours until midnight. It was great to unwind after such a LONG time in cramped quarters.

Everyone managed really well yesterday. We found ways to make life interesting. Our new motto is "We're not made of jello, we stand behind the fellow" from one of the numerous movies we watched. We have had trivia competitions and even "name that song" between the vans. I'm impressed with the creativity. We'll see how creative we'll be today after such a short sleep.

This morning there are "snow" warnings for the area. We think that there are different ideas about snow warnings down here. We're really hoping to see some sun when we get down there!

We're so thankful for the great group we have here. We are laughing a lot and look forward to more fun!

We have very interesting videos and pictures to post! We'll do that when we get there. It is amazing what happens in a van after 15 + hours of driving! We appreciate all your prayers for safety.

Blessings! Julie
