Day 14 of Our NC Road Trip Aug 7,2009

Dave and Cari saw us off at about 7:30. We stopped at Burger King for breakfast. This was going to be our longest day in the truck. We need to make up some time today.This picture was actually taken on the way to North Carolina,but that is all we saw of it .While we were about to drive under it I snapped a picture. On the way home we stopped to see the museum. This is where the different pioneers crossed paths. There were the 49ers,Mormons,Oregan Trail and another one that I can think of. When we got there they take you up an excalator to the pioneer time. They give you earphones and you have a self guided tour through the museum which is over the freeway.

I had to take a picture of this, it just shows the strength and the faith the pioneers had to cross the plains and the rocky Mountains. They lost so many loved ones on the journey.listening to pioneer storiesThey even talked about the Auto and its trek west.The tour was over but it was well worth the money to see it. It fit in so nicely with our learning all about the mormon pioneers.This was on the side of the free way at a rest stop. It looked like Abe was going to fall on you because of the clouds in the sky. It was really high up as you can tell by the kids looking at him.Look we got a state line.

We Met up with Dad ,Mom,Aunt Linda and Grandma Orm. The kids were playing at the fire station to get some energy out.

Here is dad and mom and Rob chatting. Dad and Mom were on there way to see the new baby .Ah-ha we got to see her first.

The kids were so excited about this tunnel. There was quite alot of them in the East coast.

We made it to Rawlins,WY for the night.
