Hello! Our road trip has finally started and i am… VERY tired. this time, it’s just me and Daddy on the drive. Our first day was almost entirely driving with a few stops for fuel and food. We have been going since around 6:30 in the morning. We started out by actually packing the things into the car and trailer. after we got all of that done, which took a while and felt kind of like playing Tetris (minus the music). We got on the road at around 9:30 and have been going ever since. Today, we have gone through Texas, Arkansas, and Missouri. the border between Texas and Arkansas is a town called Texarkana, which is a very fun little geography fact. other than that, there weren’t many notable places we stopped. okay, after all that, i have an announcement to make. we have a special companion with us! It is a small plush toy of a displacer beast named Bennet. a displacer beast is a panther with six legs and two tentacles coming out of its back, which can refract light to make them look like they’re where they aren’t. basically, if it looks like it’s here, it’s probably actually over there. anyway, Bennet is the “mascot” for my school D&D club, and he has been entrusted to me for the summer! He will be coming with us on our adventures this year! I will add pictures of him with this post. I am very excited for our trip this year, and I will write more tomorrow! Bye! -Colin
