Getting Out of the House!!!

WOW!  That was a challenge!  After almost a full day at work for Matt and so many preparations at home, we finally made it out of the house!!!  Thanks to our lovely neighbors Brian, Christie & Leah who are taking care of our pets (two dogs and a cat), and of course to our dear daughters Lissie & Aimee who will be around as well. 


We decided to get out on the road and ride for an hour (57 miles on I 40 West), just enough time to arrive before dark at the hotel in Burlington, NC.  After checking in at the Hampton, we went straight to the Outback for dinner.  By the way, the management and service at this restaurant is outstanding.  Two thumbs up for Stephen our waiter, and Outback's management... customer excellence at its best!  After a delicious dinner, we came back to the hotel to get a good night's rest so we can be ready early in the morning and continue our way up north.


Good night everybody...  'til tomorrow.
