College Road Trip Day 1

The big day has arrived and Southern Man, Southern Sister, and Teen Daughter headed northeast on the first leg of our journey to deliver daughter to Olivet Nazarene University. And frankly there's not a lot to tell as we did little other than drive for eight hours or so and pick up a geocache or two on the way and take the wrong exit and end up in downtown St. Louis...

...which allowed Southern Sister to lean out the window and snap this nice pic of The Arch. While driving.

Southern Sister had reserved a room for us just north of St. Louis so we stopped there for the night where the two girls shopped and ate and Southern Man nabbed another geocache (his first in IL) and shopped and ate and then returned to our suite for a leisurly hour in the whirlpool. Tomorrow it's just a short hop up to the college.
