Question: What Time is it There?

Sunday is Easter, in case you missed it. Just a friendly heads up!

When we last left off in this Spring Break extravaganza, we were still in Indiana. Well, folks, I am here to tell you that we are finally getting out of there! I mean, not that I don't love it. There's just only so much time you can spend in a state that doesn't cheer for the Chiefs.

After having a great time with the Fowlers (their hospitality and love toward us was unbelievable), we set off on the next leg of our adventure. Our first stop would be in Morganfield, Kentucky to meet up with the Yaugers, another family from THOGL who we met while we were over there this past summer. We decided to meet up at a barbecue restaurant in Morganfield, which I was thrilled about - even if it wasn't KC barbecue...

A Little More Indiana(polis)

Am I the only one who has noticed that I've made posting about Spring Break about 10 times as long as Spring Break actually was?

When we last left off on this marathon of a road trip, we were in Indianapolis, hanging out with Kelsey's sister, Tracy. Did I mention that I love Indy? Because I do. In fact, I loved it so much that I'm going to write about it again... sort of.

After spending the night with Tracy, we got up the next morning, packed up once more (we were professionals by this point), and headed to our next destination: the Fowlers! The Fowlers live in a town just outside of Indianapolis, so we only sort of left the city, which was fine by me. Somehow, though, I think I still managed to sleep part of the way there. Maybe I should get that checked out...

A Break from Spring Break

This should be short and sweet, mostly because I have 2 tests today and a major paper due Monday...

As you can see from the title of this blog post, I want to take a quick break from Spring Break. I promise I will continue to post about it in the very near future. For now, though, I want to share an experience with you that I had yesterday.

Nothing incredibly out of the ordinary truly happened yesterday. Honestly, it probably won't be a day that I remember outside of this blog post. However, that is part of the reason I want to tell you about part of it...

Indiana: The home of invisible towns, Starbucks, and the Colts

I'm not gonna lie. I had to e-mail myself a copy of our Spring Break itinerary from Kalyn's computer to help me with this blog post...

When we last left off on this ridiculous trip, we were in Wakarusa, Indiana, spending time with some of Kalyn's family. Check out the previous post if you missed it to get filled in on Waka-Waka Land (as I affectionately refer to it).

We had a great time with Kalyn's family and their hospitality was amazing. Hopefully we'll get to see them again soon. However, we did eventually have to leave. We had a lot of people to see, and unfortunately, Spring Break was only a week long. Our next stop?

Wabash/Somerset/La Fontaine, IN. 

And I thought Wakarusa was small...

W/S/LF, Indiana is, well... Let's just say you're not going to find it if you look for it. Literally. Even in the 21st century, some towns aren't "on the map." If you check it out on Google Maps, you'll actually be able to find Wabash, and if you're lucky, you'll find La Fontaine, too. Somerset, though? Non-existent. 

And therein lies our problem. The next family we were supposed to visit claimed to live in Somerset. I'm still not sure if the town exists, and I've been there! I mean, I really would've taken a picture of it, but what's the use in photographing an invisible town?

Eventually, though, we figured out how to trick Google Maps into giving us directions to this invisible town. We actually missed it the first time we drove through. No joke. However, we eventually made it there, and the people we saw more than made up for the invisible town that they live in...

Waka-What?

I realized that we only have 4 weeks of school left last night. My motivation level dropped about 1007%.

When we last left off in our epic Spring Break journey, typical road trip chaos had ensued. Missed that post? Check it out here. Thankfully, though, we finally made it to Wakarusa, Indiana, home of none other than Aunt Kelly, Uncle Billy, and Isaac.

No seriously. I really meant "none other." There's literally no one else there.

So maybe I'm being a bit facetious. That's beside the point. Aunt Kelly and Uncle Billy are relatives of Kalyn that she is very close to and loves very much. Unfortunately, they live in a town with a population of 3 that is $200 worth of gas away from us. Thankfully, though, they will be moving back to Kansas soon. Until then, though, Wakarusa is the place to be (5 points to anyone who caught that ridiculous TV show reference)...
