Day 19 - May 29

What can I say about twelve hours of driving...ugghhh! But we got here and our grandson was there standing in the driveway, ready, willing and able to unload his early birthday gift. For those of you that don't know, he had requested a little construction project for his 21st birthday. Following on last year's trip to help build out his frat room, he wanted a bar for his new and larger fraternity room. So grandpa (and grandma too) obliged and built a portable (semi) bar complete with fraternity and college logos. And along the "Road 2 Morroco" we found a few trinkets for the bar...a bottle of Moose Drool beer and a matching pilsner glass (from Yellowstone) and a set of hedgehog bar towels from Gills Rock, WI (Jerad has always loved hedgehogs). The drive through Chicago during the later part of rush hour was not my cup of tea. A few toll booths later we finally got there.
