We compared the insane gas prices to the insane airlines and decided to drive to our destination at The Rushes on Kangaroo Lake in Door County, Wisconsin on the peninsula by Lake Michigan. It was a 24 hour drive to our destination! I am happy to report that our kids were champion travelers and we made good time both ways. It helped that we stopped in Nebraska to sleep on the way there and back.

We loved when Packer would fall asleep and Benji figured out that if he put the blanket over his head then it blocked the sun and he could watch his movies better! 🙂

You wouldn’t guess that this smiling face had been in a car for a day and a half already 🙂

Ben Drove most of the trip. I drove maybe 5 of 50 hours so he drove 9/10 of it 🙂

Packer found the grapes in a bag next to his seat and started going to town on them – I wondered why he was being so quiet 🙂 He is a big time fruit eater.
