Over 1700 miles from home!

 Well, we are now two out of three on the hotel rooms.  Emma and Malcolm feel that our choice of hotel in Dickinson, ND is the best ever... can you tell why???

Today's trip was nearly as long as yesterday but without the crazy traffic delays and the multitude of meltdowns. One casualty of the day was the camping pad that Jacob chooses to sleep on (instead of rotating with his siblings).  Apparently, that was a donation to the person in the parking lot that found it when I left it in Maustin, WI. 

Lunch today was Subway in Albany! Emma said it was healthy... 

This really was "Smalbany", but they had a Subway!

Dinner in Dickinson brought us to Perkins restaurant since it was right across the street.  Everyone but Jacob had breakfast food...
 

Tomorrow, we finally reach our first major destination! Glacier National Park! Can't wait!

A few catch-up items from yesterday:

Just before the big 90 minute traffic jam...

Proof that it was over 100 degrees in the traffic jam...

The thunderstorm that we just barely missed...
