Hey there! It is the best group... the GRUMPYS!!! Lindsay, Grace, Reese, Sarah, Chaning, Emery, Kiya, Kelsey, Mary, Justin, Gabe, Fletcher and Connor!!
Today, we got to sleep until 6:45am!! A lot of us woke up around 6am though to the air conditioning turning on which sounded like the bagpipes we were woken up to yesterday… We have a little PTSD...thank you, Grant!
The bus and trailers were packed and we headed on our way to the wonderful Walter's World, where the cooks shopped for our amazing breakfast of muffins and apples while others went shopping for snacks, shampoo, and deodorant (we are very thankful for that and you would be too if you were here!!)
The ride today consisted of naps, chatting, bracelet making, and games. Miss America had to take a detour at one point which caused them to run behind, so the bus and Carolina Girl settled in at the Kansas Welcome Center for a little bit. We unloaded, stretched our legs, and relaxed..thank goodness. Some people journaled, some took naps, some watched the Wizard of Oz inside, and some played spike ball or cards. On the road again, we listened to some great music Boyce found on the radio and lunch was served! PB and jelly or PB and nutella with pretzels.
While driving, we saw oil rigs, windmills and miles and miles of fields. Not much to see here in Kansas and some were clicking their heels to try and get out of here and home faster!
Finally seeing some civilization, there was a huge sigh of relief. We made it to Manhattan, our destination of the day!
We took a picture at Kansas State and then went on to another Walter's World (2 Wally Worlds in one day, wow we are lucky!!!). Once arriving at our campsite, Tuttle Creek, we were met with a lot of bugs. Welcome back to camping in the humidity!
Tonight was our final night calling home because we will be seeing you in just 3 days! We have missed you all and can't wait to see you!!!!
We had a YUMMY dinner of hibachi chicken with rice and veggies before hitting the hay and was a great meal after such a long day!!
Tomorrow, we will be in St. Louis! Sweet dreams everyone!
See you guys soon, Love you, mean it.
