Day Eight - Fergus Falls, MN

We made it to Fergus Falls, Minnesota, tonight after a smooth day of driving. The highlight of the trip was listening to "How to Eat Fried Worms," one of the many books-on-tape we brought along for on-board enterntainment. In fact, most of our luggage consists of books, toys, and other diversions for the kids.

We've travelled over 1,800 miles so far, although not all of those have been on the highway. Overall, the children are doing great. It's not easy being a young kid overflowing with energy but confined to a car seat for hours at a time! As for Brinkley, she's just happy being along for the ride.

Tomorrow is a long day of driving - a little over 600 miles to our destination, Billings, Montana. Our plan is to start early and hit Miles City, Montana, by dinnertime so we can eat at a little mom and pop restaraunt we discovered there a few years ago. If it's half as good as I remember it, it'll be a treat!
