So we left Wednesday morning, later than expected, for St. Louis to visit the in laws. The drive wasn’t bad, Matthew and I switched off, but what did hurt was the gas!! This ride was a LOT better than the one down from Newport as We had a lot less stuff in the car. Harlem got to ride up front and was great because he didn’t hog the radio.

I have discovered that now a days the radio is NOT your friend for road trips. Most of the music is garbage and I can only listen to my own playlist so many times before I’m sick of it. Matthew and I are listening to Divergence, yes we’ve seen the movie, and plan on listening to the others. I also really got into my NPR app and found the TED talks to be riveting. Get on that if you’re not already
