Day 50 (August 3) of our road trip

Hello! Day 50 was nice. We got up a bit earlier than usual, 7, to have breakfast and then we got dressed and did a few around-the-house chores. We went out at 11 so we could get to Luckett’s, a really nice restaurant, for lunch with extended family. We got charcuterie to start, and after a while Laura and I went out to see the phone box that Luckett’s has in its vineyard. Once we got back, the food had arrived. I had a grilled ham and cheese sandwich, with fries on the side like everyone else. The fries at Luckett’s are absolutely amazing. A few people got dessert, and we got back home at 5. I played some Minecraft, and then we had supper. Laura and I tried to get an emulator set up on my computer, and then we played cribbage. This time, Dad and Laura won. After that, we went to bed. That’s all for today, bye!

Hello! Day 46 was nice. I got up at a normal time, had breakfast, got dressed, and cleaned the kitchen. I worked on the puzzle for a while, and then helped dad clean up some branches he had been cutting back from the trees in front of our house, so that we could drive out of our house without running into a bunch of branches. We did that for most of the morning, and we had lunch at 12 so I could go to D&D club. Unfortunately, We didn’t realize that it wasn’t happening that day.
