Father's Day Adventure

We decided to make a trek out to Utah to see cousins after the final end-of-school-year activities we're over. There weren't actually too many things going on, but I didn't know and I don't want to miss anything, especially after nothing was going on! My mom decided to make a reunion out of it with my siblings and their children in Eden, UT at an Airbnb.

We left after work on Friday, which was the hardest drive, through Chicago, for a 4 hour drive. We drove 10 hours on Saturday and 10 on Sunday, Father's day. Victoria got to drive a couple hours both days. Jason gave her good driving tips for road tripping.

The most interesting part about driving during corona virus time was that most water fountains we're closed, which was fine with me. I actually brought bottled water so we wouldn't need to. Michigan was getting better, but we don't want to bring anything back from Utah, which is getting worse.

The pools at the hotels were for reservation only and the hotel employees would gather the breakfast for us instead of everyone getting their own.  When we left, we left the key cards in a bowl rather than handing it in.

It was an eye opening experience as to the world around us right now.

I got to relax in the back seat.

Super friendly prairie dogs.
