Road Trip '08 - Galesburg, IL

So I lost count of what day we're on...so...oh well.

We left Farmington yesterday just before 10 AM. Not gonna lie, I was WAY sad saying goodbye to Ben, but then again I've always been TERRIBLE with goodbyes. I cried a little as we got in the car but nothing after that, which I consider an improvement., because I leak at everything. But, we bid Benny farewell and got on the road headed towards Nauvoo, IL.

Mikell was not pleased at all to go to Nauvoo, I however, was stoked. It was hokey and dinky Church history stuff but I enjoyed it. I'd never been there before and it was neat to see. We had dinner in the Hotel Nauvoo at the most scrumptious buffet I've had in a while. It was SO good. And then get left Nauvoo and arrived at Rachael's house in Galesbug, IL right next to Knox College.

Galesburg is...special. It's teenier than Farmington by A LOT! And everyone here is an uber-active liberal lesbian feminist. It's a little much to handle. But Rachael is AMAZING! I love her with all my heart and soul! So last night we ended up at some girls house and then at a shady, ghetto as all get-out diner called "The Broadview". There is no Denny's. This place makes Denny's look like Wolfgang Pucks. It was gross.

So basically that's the story. Everything smells like cats here because she has two and they are ridculous and they climb on everything and make Mikell die because she is allergic.

And that's about it.
