Day 1: Hickory, NC

We are about two hours into our adventure - and saw some ominous clouds ahead that justified pulling over at a rest area to put the top up. We have been learning about the building of the Brooklyn Bridge - pretty freakin' cool so far!

John says that the Civil War experiences of the son are the most interesting part of the story.

Forget the Broolyn bridge unless your crossing over into Manhatten to get REAL Chinese food! Be safe! Love ya!

We finished the 'book' just before arriving in Memphis. I thought the part about his wife Emily taking over most of Washington's duties was the coolest part!
