On the road again...2,300 miles in 1 week

Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virginia and Maryland in 1 week! 2,300 miles, that has to be some kind of a record. Even for us that is a lot of travel. We left Adam's parents place on jan 15th and made a 15 hr drive all the way to San Antonio. My 92 year old grandpa and my aunt live there. We walked along the river walk and through the Alamo. So much American history in that city. Then we cruzed up to Austin and spent a few days with 2 of our friends from Cali. We loved Austin! It is such a great city. We went to this cool strip of really old houses that have been converted into bars. It was really neat. Then we drove through Nashville, the country music capital of the world. It was a short visit and we would have liked to spend more time there. Then we went up to Lexington to visit my childhood best friend. She has 2 adorable little boys and a great house that is 130 years old. It was so beautiful! Yesterday, we had another LONG drive to get to Baltimore, where we are going to be staying with Adam's cousin and his wife.  It was actually a really pretty drive. I read most of the way while Adam drove. When we got in we walked to a cute little Mexican restaurant where we drank Margaritas out of a hubcap! Their house is so cute and it's nice that we will be staying here for a couple of days and that it is walking distance from bars and restaurants because its snowing pretty hard out there. Snowy days are the best to enjoy when you don't have to work and you can just sit in a Starbucks and watch the snow come down.
