Mom and I stopped for dinner at this Subway in the truck stop. Tiffany and I decided years ago on a road trip to OK that you can put a Subway in anywhere as they don't need a special looking building to make you know it is Subway. So this one was in the truck stop. When you walk in it was in the most random place in the gas station and looked as if they just set it up for the day. They only had a small display of chips and the soda fountain was no where to be seen, but found it anyway. They had about 3 tables with only a couple of chairs right near the counter. They were taken at the time. So we wandered around to find another place to sit. We found the TV Lounge and thought that we could do that, but once again one table and someone was sitting there and smoking. So our last resort was this random room that had 2 tables and 3 chairs. There was a large ashtray (when I say large it was the same size as my head) at one of the tables. So we sat at the other table. While we were sitting there I look up and the walls are covered in bright blue carpet. It was rather random. Wish I would have thought to take a picture while I was in there, but didn't. So that was our fun adventure on the way to STL.Sunday, July 5, 2009
Love Long Weekends
Not sure how else to put it except that I love to have a long weekend and to have an extra day to do what I want. I have had a couple of those this past month. Last weekend I had Friday off to just do some things that needed to get done. This past weekend I went to St. Louis with my mom to see Sara, Eric, Troy and McKenna. Good times were had by all. We got there late on Thursday night. We went to the zoo on Friday which is always fun. Since the STL Zoo is free you don't feel like you have to see everything every time you go. Saturday we went out to breakfast and then celebrated the 4th with Sara's neighbors. Talk about a spectacular fireworks show. It was so great. We got up and came home this morning. Mom and I got about 45 mins away from their house then got a call that mom had left her computer at their house. So we turned around and met Eric halfway so we didn't have go all the way back. So needless to say it was bit longer drive, but no biggie. I'm now home and relaxing on the couch updating the blog (as if you didn't already know that)
