AZ to MD

Well here it is, the long-awaited update on my dad, Lil J, and my cross country travels...

Good news: no car trouble, no bad weather, no issues with hotels, we made it on time, we didn't get on each others nerves.

Bad news: Lil J made the trip and would have been fine, unfortunately he had a run in with the Woods' dog... and ended up passing away a week later due to a broken jaw and not being able to eat or drink by himself. We had been feeding him baby food and water with a medicine dropper. He was one amazing little guy, walking around the house until the very end, he will be very missed...
RIP Little one... 10.7.09

Highlights:
  • Stations of the Cross in Groom, TX is a must visit if you're ever driving thru on the 40
  • The Gateway Arch is worth the $10/person to experience the tram ride and see the amazing view (pretty sweet for me, it was my 23rd birthday!)
  • Family (soon to be) can always surprise you... thanks for my cake and birthday gifts!
  • Despite his situation (dog attack, etc.) Lil J was a warrior, and I'm thankful for the time I got to have him around, he was my baby.
  • My dad and Quinn are amazing... from packing Ikea boxes into the truck to assembling furniture like pros.
