No, I am not at your grandma's house. I am in a hotel room.
Yes..Yes.. it sounds very glamours. And it can be. But not for me.
Tonite as I write this I am at a Best Western. Where that name came from I don't know. I am in Kansas City, not very western. And this certainly isn't the best hotel I have ever stayed in. In fact, it is a good thing it is only a one night stay or I would have kept looking. But, the price was right and I just needed a bed. Unfortunately all they had were smoking rooms...so, I was forced to start a nasty habit. Expensive too. But hey...everyone is doing it.... or they used too. OK, I did not start smoking simply because I am in a smoking room. in fact, I didn't start. settle down mom.
OK. Sorry for rambling. My hotel is sufficient.
Some trips I fly. Some I drive. This current trip I flew some, and drove a lot. On Wednesday, I drove from Ankeny to Kansas City, then flew from KC to Houston, then drove from Houston to Sulphur LA (about 2 hrs). Then, drove from Sulphur to Shreveport LA, about 4hrs. few, that was a long day. Thursday I drove from Shreveport back to Kansas City, 9hrs driving. Now tomorrow I will drive back to Ankeny. Lots of fun. So travel is fun. sure.
The actual best part about being on the road is the food. Restaurants! Need I say more?
Until the next trip.
