Nothing but cornfields

The best quote of our trip came in Dyersville, Iowa, the tiny town noted only for "Field of Dreams" filming there in 1989.

When told we were moving cross-country to Ohio, a friendly, local lady sympathized: "Aw, too bad you have to drive 'cross Indiana next! All they've got o'er there is 'ours of cornfields!"

Every forty miles or so...

Clearly, Cabelas is the Cracker Barrel of the North; you can absolutely measure your roadtrip mileage by them.

Hotel Navigation Training

It took no fewer than six right/left turns, three curvy hallways, and one elevator ride to reach our hotel room yesterday. However, after two trips from car to room, Little One navigated herself there with zero errors - then calmly requested, "'Oom key, peez!" to swipe all by herself.

Clearly she has Daddy's sense of direction.

You know you're PCSing when...

Took a shower; totally forgot shampoo and only shaved under one arm.
