The Lone Star State

(click on the pic for larger image)

After a brief (well, at least it was supposed to be brief... it turned into an hour long stop... if you've ever traveled halfway across the country with a 3 and 4 year old you probably understand) pitstop in Texarkana we crossed the border into Texas.

We've gone from Clinton country to the land of Bush! Texas is also the final destination of our little road trip, being home to quite a few members of the Daily Yak family. My wife has siblings in Allen (outside Dallas) and Houston, and my brother is stationed at Ft. Hood.

A few more hours and we will be able to relax, stretch out and enjoy the hospitality of our hosts. As I said earlier, I love road trips... but this is the longest one we've taken with the kids and I think 3 days in the van is just about their limit at this point.
