Home to Knoxville, Tennessee

We got on the road at 8:30am. At the first exit we had to pull over because our youngest left the window open that's inside his bunk and the screen almost flew out. In order to get to the window from the inside the slides have to be open so there we are on the exit ramp with Cody messing with the hydraulic slide system to only open the particular slide he needs to get in and close the window. After less than 10 minutes Cody was done and we were back on the road. 

For this trip we decided to give the kids a small present every two hours. We put them in brown lunch sacks with their name on it and if they were well behaved for the 2 hours they got to pick one of the sacks and open it. 

To keep the kids busy we made activity binders. I printed and laminated different activity pages to put in the binders with dry erase markers and colored pencils for drawing on blank paper in the binder. 



I also made travel board games. Yahtzee, Chutes and Ladders and Sorry. I put the dice in a Tupperware container so that they could just roll them in that and not lose any dice in the truck. 



A little after noon we stopped near Cincinnati at a truck stop for Subway for lunch. We fueled up and used the facilities then got back on the road. 

We got to the campground at Knoxville at 6pm. We went swimming for about an hour after getting set up. After dinner we watched Big Brother. We had a simple day of driving. Thank you God for getting us to our destination today!
