It is early in the morning, and we’ve already packed everything!

Now to pack THEM into the car….

Now we are ready, and we are off!

Today, we will travel north towards Kansas, “knocking out” the Bush 43 Library, as well as the Eisenhower Birthplace. I’ll post later today to show you all what we did!

Cheers!
