As I sit here with my family watching the Music Man after a long day of family togetherness I am so glad that I am a part of this family.  I love them so much.  We went to the Amish community today, and it was wonderful.  There was soo much rich and solid furniture that I really wanted for my new house.  I lamented my lack of money.

Nevertheless, I love Kentucky.  Despite the fact that my family is violently opposed to Obama and they talk about it often (my extended family doesn't know that I support him) I love being with them and I feel most comfortable with them. 

My trip up here was fraught with peril.  I lost myself a number of times and found myself stopping to ask suspicious-looking people for directions.  Also, my debit card was left in my house in HS, so I couldn't stop for gas in most places.  Criss-crossing through northern Mississippi, I came upon Byhalia by chance.  As I continued down the road, I turned into a parking lot in order to turn around and hit 78.  Imagine my surprise as before me rose Byhalia High School!

I didn't stop in, but nevertheless I was glad to see it.

An empty church parking lot in Tennessee provided the perfect place to pull in and take a nap for about an hour.

I lost myself the whole way, but it was much easier after the nap.
